My apologies, I thought you were saying a disco potato was an upgrade from a 2871R
hahaha no problem i was just confused. i'm coming from a 10psi gt28r that while drifting i can just hammer the throttle and it will break loose. i'm deathly afraid of losing that. thats why i keep toying with the gt28rs as a happy medium between the gt28r and the gt2871r. but i was thinking with a staggered cam/valve setup and a port and polish it would substainly increase response with the 2871r .64

Get a final drive set if you're really worried. a 4.6 FD would be incredible. I may have another set for sale soon, I'll let yo uknow if you're interested.

I don't do any drifting, but I know traction in 1st even in warm weather is near impossible.

Anything but warm weather, 2nd gear kind of spins.

3rd gear and lower, if you are at >4000 RPM and romp on the throttle, it fully spools VERY quickly.

I would imagine if you are doing drifing and are in 2nd or 3rd and want to break it loose, throttle or throttle plus a small amount of clutch kick should do the trick NO problem

But I don't care for drifting even though my car is essentially perfect for it lol
