just got a 3.15 gear put in, results are the following.
1. no gear whine - had tons with the 3.73's (both of them).
2. less head snapping torque now i have to actually hit the power band (3500+) before the tires go into orbit.
3. longer gear pulls, 1st to 52mph @ 7000 rpm, 2nd to 72 mph, etc.. and thats with a mt82 and 26" tall tires.
4. less gear changes
5. 4th gear up to 132mph is incredible.
6. 5th gear is 172mph @ 7000 rpm.
LOng story short, if you have an mt82 and unlock your rev limiter i guess a 3.73 works - but if you have even the slightest of mods its too much. automatic is the opposite.
anyone else make the change to a taller gear?
