Was that directed at me? As you know EPR is now very bumpy would 700wt be too heavy?

Thanks

Hey Bundy I spoke with hagberg he said the kit setup is pretty soft so it should work.
For smooth tracks definitely go harder.

Will this tool work to remove shocks and steering links, etc on the NT1?

hold up so u gain steering by running heavier oil in your front diff? I thought that would/should make it push! but I race with a guy who runs the 747, car has awsome steering, turns on a dime n i swear hes running a million weight or more up front!!!! on Dj apalaros setup for the cap co2 he says i run 200k up front but i like a car that pushes a little, if u want more turn in drop down on the oil!!! so even some pros beleive that heavier oil will induce a push........im confused

Its a combination front and rear wich gets the steering. Harder diff front will push more only on turn-in, but when you put harder diff in the rear the steering will increase again. A hard rear diff has some disadvantages but if it works on this track its good. Hope it explaines it somwhat for you.
