Wow, that actually did make sense. So that's what they mean by the gear is a mulitplier. So basically when I get my 4.10s my car will take off because it will be mulitipling the torque to a number higher then the weight of my car. Also stock Mustangs have 260hp lol.

 

I have a question? So when you start modding your car and lets say keep it N/A, would 4.10s multiply the torque too much causing you to not catch traction off the line? Now lets say you supercharge your car, would the 4.10s be worse then say 3.73s like everyone says?

 

they say that 4.10's and a s/c will hurt your tires like a sharp, heated blade to slightly heated butter. i plan on doing it though, will just take some phat rubber and the right suspension upgrades to keep those tires from resembling, well, I can't quite get a kid-friendly analogy for this one....sorry guys

anyway, 4.10s will burn too much rubber and rob you a few top speed mph's. 3.73's are a happy medium i gather.

 

good question? anybody...

 

That chart looks wrong

 

Thanks for all the info, that makes sense! I told you I wasn't the smartest person, lol!
And I'm pretty sure those numbers are correct, here's where I got em from.

A good way to help understand it is to think of a mountain bike's gears. When you are using the big ring gear or sprocket, it is much easier to climb or take off initially and as you shift to higher gears (smaller spockets or gears) it goes faster. If you start off with a small ring or gear, it is slower to get going. Like 1 of the posts above, the torque is multiplied faster with a bigger, taller, higher gear or sprocket. Just like using different blocks and tackle to achieve lift.
Hope this helps some.

Are thosenumberson my tablecorrect?

 

No

 

Well,I used a MPH/RPM calc....how are they wrong??
