BMW e46 touring drift build.. diff HELP!

[Charlotte levesconte]

Hi not sure if this is the right section to post but I am new here!! and I really need some advice as my bf is doing my head in talking diffs and ratios to me lol! So any advice would be much appreciated from all you drifters currently running a 3.38 small case diff but it doesn’t seem to be doing the job revs out to quick in second and ain’t pulling in 3rd.. so it’s absolute pants on track… we’re used to no one catching us and seems like our door is the main attraction since swapping from a 36! ‍ So if anyone could help with advice on a different diff setup that would be absolutly great And save me a hole load of head ache

What engine do you have ?

Personally I run a 2.93 in a 2.8 E46 and second is minty. Plenty of wheel speed. Know a few lads who run with a 2.93 and they all like it. Mind you, we all equally liked our 3.38's so ...........
