I usually use 45 for front and 42 for rear. If I need more steering, I will use 42 all around.

Actually I know the unit will seize a little power from the car since it attaches to the crank, and will a little weight to the rotating mass of the crank., but I notice that maybe with a little modification, kind of interesting just looking at it, iof I can make a forced air induction system for it, since it butts right next to the carb opening. Maybe have it act like a supercharger LOL. Here is a pic of it...:

I just purchased the fan, but I can't seem to get it to fit. How did you get your fan to fit with the air filter on? I have a MT12 and the air filter pushes up against the fan assembly.

You can do one of 2 things...

1. Get a smaller air filter. There are some air filters that are really small. If you're like me, I only race on prepped tracked that is pre blown, so dust is not that big of an issue, so using the small filter isn't really a problem, or

2. Move the fan forward past the air filter. The fan slides back and forth on the brace, so you can move it forward.

It won't fit at all with the air filter I have. I guess I'm going to have to purchase a smaller air filter.

Have you noticed that big of a difference in your engine temperature with the fan installed? I really don't want to purchase a new air filter if it's not worth it.

Thanks for your help.

So what does it take to convert the rr to normal version? For instance if I were to run rubber with sedan body.

I dont think it comes with the LSD with the kit. I saw a guy assembled a V1RR at LSH. the rear floating body support is cool but it does add some weight to the car. the front sway bar set is great too and I am awaiting for the option parts of this two to arrive to make my V1R to V1Rr !
