im getting 3.73 i also heard that 4.10 dont do much in the quarter due to decreased speed in the top end and u have to shift more which takes up the time difference

with stock 3.27s you can trap in 3rd gear barely. with gears your going to have to trap in fourth either way unless you go higer then 4.30s.if you have 373s or 410s your still going to have to trap in 4th

i've read that frpp has less of a tendancy to produce gear noise. Also for anyone that has a 5 speed and 3.73s; what do you rev at when you are doing about 80?
