Default Question re QA1 setting.

I'm going from 3.23s to 3.73s. Car is a 2001 formula with a 3,600 vig. I have an adjustable torque arm, lcas and 12 way adjustable QA1 shocks set at 3 on the left and 4 on the right.. car gets 1.60 60' now with M/T drag radials. Once the 3.73s are in do I change the settings up (stiffer) or down? Just thought someone may have some experience with this..Thanks

Thats why they are adjustable.

Go to the track and just adjust them every run untill you your times start to get worse then go back to the settings that gave you the best run. Then you can play with tire pressure and shock settings at the same time ect ect.
