Default Who's runnin .18tm ebmods I got questions.

I got an os .18tm ebmods. I have a forward only converson and a close gear ratio, so just wondering does it really eliminate wheelies that much? cause i don't do any at all, not that i want too. But, i figured i'd see something crazy. I heard the .18tm ebmods is supposed to be a crazy engine? I dunno if I expected too much. So i'd like to know how other peoples are running.

is your slipper set right? it should be flipping over, the forward only and close ratio doesn't eliminate wheelies, the forward only should make them easier.

oh sorry, this might make a little more sense. I also installed the trx center diff kit.

yeah you wont get wheelies at all with the centre diff unless you have extremely heavy diff fluid and it is cold then you MAY get a wheelie but I doubt it.

I wouldn't say you expected to much, take the centre diff out and you will have trouble controlling it, no motor can really wheelie with a centre diff.

yea its definitly the diff take it out......then youll see how crazy this motor is, becuase of the diff its putting more poweer to the front wheels and thus no power to the rear wheels= no wheelies
