I'm sorry what? Why would a top shaft impact anything but rotating weight?

You don't need those setscrews. Just put a dap of tire glue or any glue on the inserts that go into the hubs (front and rear) and you get rid of slop. Also saving grams of weight which you want to do wherever you can since the b5m is such a heavy car.

What holes are you guys using on the stock wing? The forward or rear holes?

I run the forward holes. That is what seemed "right" and that is what other people are running at my local track as well

Can anyone think of a reason why I can't use a b4 Diff gear? The b5 gear is wider but it's the same number of teeth. The Difference is only about a 1/16th

I'm running a jconcept wing now. I'm going to switch to the stock wing it came with. I noticed it's a totally different shape. Wondering if that will make a difference.

I am actually running the rearward ones. I started with it simply because i don't like the wing looks hanging so far off the back. The car worked so well i am afraid to try anything new!

Did you trim the front of the wing then so it doesn't hang so far over the body that way?
