I have read every thread I could find on the subject both here and ofna, and I am even more confused then before I started. I am trying to set up my PCR Pro diffs, I have regular diffs in the front and rear, and the option of a spyder or regular diff for the center. I have read many people saying to run 5-7-1, and I have also read a lot of people on Ofna's site saying to run 3-3-5. Which is a better starting point? 3-3-5 or 5-7-1 and should I use the regular center diff or the spyder? I am very confused on this so any real help would be greatly appreciated, This will be a racer, not a basher, I will be running it on outdoor clay tracks, thanks. :shrug:
 
Start with 5,7,1 And put the spider diff in...
I tryed different WT# And went right back to the 5,7,1..
Now I don't race but 1 or 2 k up on the diff oil is very noticable when your putting down the power.. W/ the mill your putting in it...
 
I race a hyper 7 pro. One of the ofna drivers came to a race and told me to run 3-5-1. I am currently running a torsen diff in the center, I will be trying to run the spyder diff, because I hear it is better. The setup runs very well. They say the in thing to do is run a torsen in the front also. I have not tried that yet, but eventually I will.
 
Unfortunately I dont have a torsen diff yet, I only have three regular diffs and a spyder. I guess I will try the 5-7-1 first, with the spyder in the center, and see how it handles.
