Designed specifically for the Evo 7, Evo 8, and Evo 9 5-speed manual transmission, this 4.0 final drive ratio is the ideal upgrade for high-power street and track builds that have outgrown the factory gearing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe OEM Evo 8 \/ Evo 9 final drive is short, which means you are constantly shifting and running out of revs in each gear as power levels go up. By moving to a 4.0 final drive, you get taller overall gearing that keeps the car in each gear longer, improves traction in the lower gears, and drops cruising RPM on the highway. The result is a more flexible, faster Evo that can make the most of a wide powerband.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy choose a 4.0 final drive for your Evo 8 \/ Evo 9?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTaller gearing for high-power builds\u003c\/strong\u003e – Helps your Evo 7\/8\/9 stay in boost longer and reduces the need for constant shifting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImproved traction\u003c\/strong\u003e – A slightly taller Evo 8\/Evo 9 final drive ratio tames wheelspin in first and second gear, especially on big-turbo cars.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLower cruising RPM\u003c\/strong\u003e – More comfortable highway driving and less stress on the engine at constant speeds.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBetter use of your powerband\u003c\/strong\u003e – Perfect for cars that see roll racing, time attack, and road course use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMotorsport-grade construction\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Evo 8\/Evo 9 5-speed final drive gear set is manufactured by a specialist motorsport gear factory that also produces performance differentials and gear sets for well-known brands.
