Re: new torque

You will need one of those magnetic angle finders. You can get one from sears for less that $10. I believe autos are set to -1° to -2° and an M6 is set to -3° to -4°. Do a search to make sure that is right.

Re: new torque

You don't want any more than -2deg for a street car, automatic or manual. For a "stockish" HP level, -1deg, for a big stroker -2deg. If you have enough HP to require more negative angle, set it there only at the track, return it to -2deg on the street. If you keep track of the number of turns of the adjuster nut, you can set and reset it for the street without worrying about the angle finder. But you have to set it up initially with the finder.
