Ok...I have a steg stage 4, 2.8 upper, 2# lower, exhaust, cai, tune, blah blah....

Would 4.10's benefit me? Or hurt?

I will be adding a 75-150 shot in the future too...

Basically I want to out run ZO6's and Viper's on the street without the juice.

410s are overkill... If you want gears go with 3.90s..

Thanks....will that lower my mph though?

I know gears tend to lower ET, but also mph too...mph is torque related though also, so wouldn't steeper gears increase torque? (not dyno related, but acceleration related)

3:73's or 3.90's. This is from a guy that has 4:11's. I would say
3:73's would be perfect, but they are so close to the stock 3:55's.
If your going add gears and spend the money I guess 3.90's would be
the best choice, its right in the middle, where she likes it.

I have almost your same mod list and am running 11.40s with my vert (w/o spray), stock gears. If you spray a 75 shot on 3.90s you will have to shift into 5th in a true 1/4 mile race making you go slower. The gears will help you if you convert to a 28" tall tire. I do very well out on the streets against most anything out there.

Ha, same here, got um with the car. I thought it
would be a plus when I bought it, then I realized,
these cars don't need it, plus 10 mpg kinda sucks.

Hi all,

Bought my '04 this past Saturday. It's got a few mods, and I think there may be a few I'm not aware of. Wanted to rule out gears, I'm pretty confident they're 3.55 stockers, but was hoping you all could help me out. I'm doing 2 grand doing 70mph in sixth, does that sound about right to everyone?

Thanks,

-Dave

That's not too much higher, I'm surprised. I have heard mixed opinions about 4.10's. To people with 4.10's, how hard is it to hook up? Would 3.90's be a good compromise? I agree with those who have said 3.73's aren't worth it, that they are too similar to the 3.55's.

Thanks in advance for everyone's advice.
