heh.. and your RPMs are slightly higher than an 01-04 GT with a 3650 and the same gears.

I have 4.10's and a vortech and I don't like them. I'm shifting to 5th at the end of the quarter. If you don't race the 1/4 then go for it.
You need your rev-limiter raised. You should NEVER go WOT in 5th under boost[8D]

I'll stick with the 4.10's unless i see it's too much for me as a DD. none for traction, DR's good enough? or will i need suspension and rear end built?

It's your call, but I'd stick with 3.73 with the S/C

Read this very carefully. This car was tuned by one of the best tuners in the country.

Mine was tuned by Tim at MPH as well. Guess I should be careful from now on. I usually don't shift to 5th, I'll almost hit the rev limiter in 4th tho. Either I'm switching to 3.73's or only running the 1/8th from now on.

If you were to use a true 26" tire. (E.T. Street or 26x10 slick) then you could raise your rev-limiter a bityou canrun around 120mph in the 1/4 with no problem[8D]
