Try it and see and let us all know how you go.

It will be intersting to see what it will do.

A stock EF Auto 3.08 diff will do 16.2-16.4 so you would want to be looking at 15.5-15.8 I reckon.

It matters on launch technique and the weight of the car but all that in mind you should get 15.7 -15.9 straight out.
