No one was condescending towards him.I dunno... @80FoxCoupe didn't tell anybody to "f off".
Here's the deal. I don't have to know a hell of a lot about what the package is, because I know what the gears are. First is 4.696:1. Multiply that by 3.15. That's an overall launch gear of 14.79:1. So you're already traction limited in first even though the Coyote doesn't make huge torque. In second, you might not be traction limited, but it's not tough to get wheelspin. The acceleration in 3rd on up, once it actually hooks up, will be better with the lower gears.
Add a supercharger. Now you're traction limited in 1st and 2nd and it's iffy in 3rd. Fourth is where you can really get the car to solidly hook up. Do we really want to drop the rear gear to a 4.10 so you can get wheelspin until 5th? What sense does that make?
