Will this pinion change my final drive ratio a lot?

A 16T pinion alters acceleration characteristics vs larger or smaller pinions; it provides a balance between launch punch and top speed depending on your spur gear choice.

Can I harden or coat this aluminium gear?

Aluminium pinions are not typically hardened like steel, but some users apply surface treatments or replace with hardened options for extreme durability needs.

Any setup tips for running this pinion?

Ensure correct mesh with the spur gear, avoid overtightening set screws, and monitor for any slippage after initial runs to secure reliable performance.
