Default 80mph @ 3k What gears do you think I have?

Ok guys,

My 04 GT at 80mph I'm running at 3k RPM. What gears do you think I have? I got the car used back in Nov. I'm goingto put a Supercharger on it. I like to know if I need to change the gears too.

Thanks

You more than likely have 4.11's if you're running 80mph at 3K in od.

So when I get the Supercharger do you think I'll need to change the gears?

That's a question that will get you all kinds of opinions. I think 4.11's are fine with F/I cars. I'm running 3.73's and I'm not going to change them when I go F/I.

I't will be fine.

Humm, I rost the tires now, its going to be bad when I get it put on. I was thinking of going down some.
