I think I'm turning ab out 2000 rpms at 55. By the time you hit 3000 your going 85.
I'm at 2k doing 70mph in 5th gear with the stock 3.55's. how can you be at 3k doing 85?

Sorry for the shakey capture, my son had a heck of a time holding the camera steady during the acceleration takes.

At 3:05, the 1st gear roll from 20mph is unreal!

That was awesome. Yeah I do 85 MPH at 3000 rpms'. How's it feel from the seat of the pants. Try going to 60 pulling like a tractor in 4 something seconds. Try then going to hundred pulling with the same intensity. It pulls and never stops at any speed. As the song saids, "It just doesn't stall, "Unless you don't like cruising 3000 at 85 or you want to race somebody up to speeds of 150 then don't get them. I'm staying with them because nobody is going to catch me other the usual suspects corvettes or whatever in that grade. I haven't tried a corvette but it would be interesting on the slower models.

I am going to have to take a pen and write it down but I have no reason to lie. At 2000 it's 55 and 85 it's 3000. Give me time and lets see .

Is your car stock other than the gears? What tires do you have, stock 17's, 18's?

**** I thought you were referring to me. Anyway you see my mods because they are listed. I too also thought of the driveshaft but someone the other day here said it didn't do squat for him so I'm glad I went with this mod. It is a must unless you are planning a race from 125 to 150 then you will probably run out of top end at 130 to 135. Though Timmy post here that he has gone 141 one time in his. I don't seldom go in the three digits unless I'm on a desert highway in Wyoming. Maybe a 100 at times for just a millimeter of a secondbut really I don't want to hurt anyone or lose my license.

I've got to try these 4.10's. I'm going to get some installed in June.

Will it kill my gas mileage around town? I get 18+ even though I seldom shift to 5th gear and drive like an *******, so i'd assume if I shift to 5th my gas mileage around town won't be affected much. I rarely get on the interstate and i'm sure any trips I take will be in my wifes sedan when she decides what car she wants next.
