I have a mate who went low 7's on 187mph with stock planetaries..
Make sure you discuss weight.. stuff you buy from the US generally ends up in cars which weigh **** all. For example if I was buying a glide for a car that weighed 2400lbs would cost $2500 vs $5000 for a car that weighs 4000lbs

yeh torque is the killer in the end, all about distributing energy over an extended peroid of time, a shame that is the opposite of what it takes to go fast
