Kaken, I have a setup I feel like would work decent at fear farm. I have not been there this year but plan on coming out a few times this winter when I cannot gas race here. If you wana try it out that would be awesome, I'd love to hear how it works for ya before I just show up and try, but in past cars when I have a setup that works well here it has been even better out there. This PDF is too big to attach.. leme try a few other things

I tried this early on, Also tried the inside low holes on C and D. That is one of the many things I have tried and gone back and forth on. This past weekend tho I did get my car the best it has been, and it was quite easy to drive compared to the stock setup. I set my fastest overall lap time for the year as well as the fastest qual I have ran. This is only compared to my 3.0 as I have not run the Mugen on this layout.

You will need a 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5mm allen driver along with a 5.5mm nut driver. A 5mm turnbuckle wrench will be useful as well.

Make sure you follow the yellow supplemental sheet that comes with the instructions. Especially where it concerns the servo saver. The kit spring I got would reach max compression (bottom out on itself) without reaching the full stroke of the servo saver arms -- even when set by the 1mm recommended gap. This caused me to break the plastic servo arm and bend two aluminum ones before I figured it out. I replaced it with an Xray XB9 spring, and all is good. Also, check your tank where the springs sit and make sure it's not cracked. Then, bend the ends of the springs up to make sure they don't dig into the tank. After that, open the lid and make sure the clunk drops all the way up and down. I had to trim the fuel tubing on mine to get it to act right. Otherwise, just follow the manual, and you're good.
