[QUOTE=thecman26;13683413]Oh trust me it's alive! I had it at 50* with the 38/69 but was looking for a lil more punch outta the corners so I dropped it to 40*.
It also isn't a stock D4, it's the super crazy matched Fantom Ion V5 with all the upgrades. Looking at CB's cut gears as my next upgrade. Trying to not buy the carbon chassis right now.

This is my personal opinion but I feel you are geared to tall. I think you will find the pop you are looking for while still maintaining your top end speed by dropping down to a 34 pinion and keep the timing at 50. Actually most of the AE guys i run with run 32/72 in the MM car for a little more pop. If the car still lacks a little top end at 34/69 50* then try 55*.
