Default Re: K-Series Dog Box

Thank you for your comment,yes we have been using the stock final drive on all the testing,even on the earlier revisions we had the opportunity to test on 26" but with less power.[/quote]

Seriously!? Man both me and CFT had problems with our final drives... Are you treating the stock pinion and ring gear? Or is there some secret that I don't know about? Lol... Let me know if you can, thanks...

Lol... Jerk!

The PAR box is just as good as any box out there. They for some reason thought the stock final drive would be ok. But, I'm working on getting one.

Then that would make it not as good as a ppg set if it comes with a stock final. Obviously it is a weak link and it hasnt been addressed by par. How much is the par box? I might have missed it here somewhere.

this is NOT a PAR box. This bog box was designed and put out on the market by
Go Power Motorsports. To this date, there has not been 1 final drive or pinion gear failure
on any of the 5 cars that have been running this box. Javier has a lot of passes and dyno time with this without failure, and We have over 10 passes and over 30 dyno pulls on out
All Motor car.

I've been using the same one the whole time and so far it's been working good for me,All I did was purchase a new one from a local Acura dealer but nothing special has been done to it but thanks for the heads up.

Thanks for your input but I guess time will tell but for now the OEM works great! for me.

Hey Randy thanks for the advised(I'm just a rookie it was my 3rd time pulling the chute lol.)
