From memory, the sweet spot was around a 27t and be warned the stock esc will melt or catch fire when abused like this too much.

@jondilly1974 was saying that to get to 100, you need a lower spur tooth count than you can get for a standard Arrma 6s center dif. Stock is 50t I think and you could swap that out for 46t from an Infraction. That'll let you squeeze up to about a 25t pinion on the stock motor mount. To get a better ratio, you need to swap out the center dif and add a spool. The Arrma Limitless spool drops right in and comes with a 34t spur. Now your center is locked and you have even power to front and rear. That smaller spool allows you to crank up the tooth count on the pinion which in turn provides a better ratio for speed. It might act strange at low speeds, possibly even cog, but you need these closer to one to one ratios to get the most out of the motor.
Hard to beat Jenny'sI was looking to build a spool but its like $80 when the V2 spool at JRC is $50 but that requires a new rear driveshaft.
SPOOL SHAFT #ARA310943 $11.99
SPOOL SPACER SET #ARA714000 $6.99
SPOOL GEAR, 34T MOD1 8MM BORE #ARA310944 $18.99
(2) INPUT SHAFT CUP 7X18MM # ARAC5062 $17.99 each
DRIVESHAFT END LOCKING PINS #ARAC4048 $4.99
I'll just likely try a 29p with a 46 or 50 spur. But im expecting a fire.

I got my spool off ebay. Not put together for 50 bucks with the spur gear tooth of your choice. I won't say it's the best since it's definitely not. But it's working for now. I don't think the metal is best that he used.I was looking to build a spool but its like $80 when the V2 spool at JRC is $50 but that requires a new rear driveshaft.

Esc wasn't crazy hot when I had the locked up 46t diff in it with the 19t pinion. But was only doing 1-2 passes then chill for a little.
LolI have a Love/Hate relationship with them. I love them, my wallet doesn't!
So what size Rear Driveshafts do I need for a LWB (Kraton) and a XLWB (mojave) chassis?
Don't know if there is one for a stock chassis, it's gonna be a short oneWhat part No. is the rear shaft I need for the typhon 6s chassis?
You need one that is 52mm, Arrma does not have thatI'm probably making a trip to my LHS today anyway. I'll ask the guy there and hopefully don't Walk out with items I don't need!
The V1 spool fits with stock shaft's, like your center diffWas trying to get the limitless spool on the typhon. Maybe I needed the V1 limitless spool? No idea actually. Its ordered from Jenny's.

My man at my LHS can't even find one so he printed me the blow up to find the parts and built it myself if I choose.Cant find a V1 spool for under $80 and you can build on for the same price.
At $50 for the V2 spool at JRC plus a shaft, the cost is the same but the shorter shaft is said to be more stable with the V2.
You can run the original Limitless spoolMy man at my LHS can't even find one so he printed me the blow up to find the parts and built it myself if I choose.
Flopak RC doesn't seems to have any that'll fit a non stretched Typhon 6s.
Jennys RC rep Ted said he's not sure about the rear shaft needed if I choose a Limitless V2 spool. He gave me all the shaft sizes and it's up to me to make it work or find a different route.
From Jennys rep:
""The Typhon 6s Front & Rear shafts are 116mm front, 82mm rear
The Infraction 6s Front & Rear shafts ares 102mm front 168mm rear
The Limitless Front & Rear shafts are both 116mm""
^^^ +1You need one that is 52mm, Arrma does not have that
But why a long spool on a short chassis
