Whoever told you to use a spool to get traction is a moron.

Garaunteed to break axle in less than 3 days on a daily driver.
Bull Shit, i have had mine in my Camaro for a year now and had no problems. With as much HP as i'm pushing, i would be the one to break an axle before anyone else and it hasn't happen yet.

How much of a gain do u think i will get?
Up to a 12HP gain. Make sure you use 3 or 3.5inch tips.

''they have a spider gear which lets the right rear wheel only spin when stoped, kind of like limited slip diferential''

This is a direct quote from 99 Z28. From this post I am led to the conclusion that he knows jack shit about differentials.

This is one of my quotes before you made yours. So looks as if i know something. So PWMAN look before you make an indirect statement against me next time buddy.

I know thats exactly what you said a couple posts back, hence I said ''this is a direct quote from 99' Z28''. I just didn't use the quote thing where it says quote from 99 Z28.

So lets break down what you said here, ''they have a spider gear which lets the right rear wheel only spin when stoped, kind of like limited slip differential''.
So why do spider gears let only the right tire spin is my question? Whichever one whether left or right will spin it depends on which has less traction. And how is that like a limited slip? A LSD will not let one side spin and the other not, thats what it's for.

What all do you have done? Do you have like CAI? Chipped ECU? JET chips will chip your ECU, costs like 300 bucks and gets you like 20 or so HP. I don't know what all they make for the V6's, but gear change to 3.73's is a good idea for any firebird no matter what engine. I don't know if you having any problems with traction, but an LSD might be a good idea too. DO NOT get a locker or a spool. Try an Auburn Pro series limited slip, jegs's or summit should probably have them.

I don't think this is exactly what I was talking about, but it gives more HP. They don't make a chip for your car. What a chip is is you send in your ECU and they change some stuff that gives you more power, they send it back and you put it back on. Takes like 15 minutes on your part, but your car is down a week while they have your ECU.
