Neil, have you spec'd out a new diff for your 500E with an improved final drive ratio? You're 360TE does out accelate the 500E to 60 and 100mph, right?

I'm thinking of going that route myself but would have to source a used working diff to ship to Renntech so that the downtime is minimal on my 500E.

Do you think moving up to a 3.06 would substantially increase my consumption? What about top speed, how much would I be giving up?

Thanks!
