A4 and 4.10 gears users inside please
A4 and 4.10 gears users inside please I have a 200-4r w/transbrake in my car with 4.10's out back and a SS3800E verter and right now 26" ET Streets but soon to be 28" streets or drags. Last year I ran 112mph on street tires in the quarter and since then I have added the NXL kit and I am in the process of getting a H/C package.
My question is will I be able to cross the traps without hitting the rev limiter? I am going to raise the limiter to 6800 with the stock bottom end. Should I go a little higher on the rev limiter?
I really dont want to have to shift into OD, but if I do am I gonna hurt stuff badly?
I am guessing without the h/c I will be trapping around 120ish and with the heads and cam around 135ish (It is in a 93 RX7 so I only weigh around 2900lbs).
I will be at the track in 2-3 weeks so let hear some input.
What do you think? I dont have to many gear options the lowest I can go is 3.9.

Output from the calculator on my site Speed vs RPM .
I think you need a numerically smaller gear or a bigger tire.
Code:
Transmission Ratios: 1st: 2.74 2nd: 1.57 3rd: 1 4th: 0.67 Tire Diameter 1: 28 inches Rear Gear Ratio 1: 4.1:1 RPM 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th 1000 7 12 19 29 0 0 1500 10 18 29 43 0 0 2000 14 24 38 57 0 0 2500 17 30 48 71 0 0 3000 21 36 57 86 0 0 3500 24 43 67 100 0 0 4000 28 49 76 114 0 0 4500 31 55 86 128 0 0 5000 35 61 95 143 0 0 5500 38 67 105 157 0 0 6000 42 73 115 171 0 0 6500 45 79 124 185 0 0 7000 49 85 134 200 0 0 7500 52 91 143 214 0 0 8000 56 97 153 228 0 0
Why do I have to log in to use your programs?
I'm running 28x10.5x15 et drags, 2.48 first gear T400, Yank 4500, shift points at 7000, with 750rwhp what gear do I need? I am running a 4.11 but it's too much.

Regarding the gear you need what mph does the car trap at now? Here is the output for you set up, this assumes a 6% torque converter slip.
Use this Calculator for comparing two different gear ratio's.

You can try the quarter mile simulator eDragstrip but the traction algorithm needs some work. It works really well for cars under 350 Wheel HP.

My calcs do NOT account for tire growth. I haven't been able to figure out a good growth algorithm. I assume growth is a function of rpm but I have no way to measure it in the real world. Therefore I keep it simple and assume no tire growth.
