I know that this topic has probably been beat to death on here but I have been searching past threads and can't come up with a straight answer.

So... which one is the one to run?? The stock 4 post or a 3 post?? Why??

My setup is: RK Tek head and porting, Speedwerx pipe, HPS can, RK Tek secondary kit, Boondocker box.

Thanks in advance,
Boone

Heres the skinny. Turbos run better with the 4 post because you have 1 more post hucking weight. The 3 post is better for most guys. If you want to run a 4 post you need a billet spider and they will last. The stock spider is good for 1200 miles at best and will fail. Arctic Cat no longer makes parts for the 4 post.

Supreme tool has them for a like $260 I think. I was just at their website but I think it must not be working.
