20 valve and drifting

I am building up my sprinter for drifting, and want to know if the 20v is sutable for this? I know people drift with the 4ag, but is it to hard to keep the 20v on song to be a good drift motor.
Thanks.

Whats drift? 
If you think keeping a 20v 'on song' will be hard whilst doing a 'drift' you should try a 4ac.

You'll have to keep the revs up drifting a 20V, but it can be done. However I son't know if it'd be worth going 20V over 16V for a drifter, especially given the problems of RWDing the 20V.
However, your project, your choice. Just do it and get it out on track.

Hi,
i'm sure if you read through the previous posts you will have your question answered throughly in terms of how to get that FWD 4age 20v in and what kind of chracteristics it bears.
It's an ultra high compression engine, VVT (or i of it's black), quad throttle screaming engine that requires very good foot work for ur desired application.
Do your research. It's all here but it'll just take time to go through it.
