Default Faster acceleration?

What do i use as of clutch bell to get a faster acceleration is it bigger number or smaller number teeth?

And the same for the spur gear?

and I know that the close ratios tranny gears will help. will a better throttle servo help also?

Thanks in advance!

Less on the clutch and more on the spur.

You can tamper with the RPM's (your engines optimum power range) and tooth count to taylor it to fit what your looking for.

Try this. The practical RPM for a 18TM is 34000. Try different spur and CB ratios till you get what you want.
(More top end will result in a hot engine.) Because it will take longer and more strain to get there.
