    EP3 gearbox in a DC5

    Hey guys,

    I've recently been told that an EP3 gearbox would be a good upgrade to my DC5R gearbox, supposedly because it has shorter gear ratios? i was also told that it would be a direct bolt on?

    I am pretty sceptical, can someone confirm?

    u mean ep3r? direct bolt on yes.
    shorter ratios no. exactly the same ratios. not an upgrade.

      Direct bolt-on because they're identical. Was this person trying to sell one to you? lol

          I remember reading somewhere that the speed sensor will be different between the dc5 and ep3 box since they run different tyre sizes from factory. Different tyre sizes may equate to different circumference of the tyre resulting in different speed reading.
