Supercharging your car is definitely the way to go. For gears I think 3.73 would be best. The 4.10 ratio doesn't make it quick, it makes it fast. 3.73 makes it quick which is what you're going to want if you want to street race and smoke the SRT/GT/R/T's/EVO's.

Gears and LTs will give you a pretty quick GT. For the gears id go w/ 4.10s as well. You'll then want to look into some suspension because you need to get the power to the ground w/ those 4.10 gears. Some upper and lower control arms will help a lot.
Nicely done!
This is precisely the answer I was going to give before I saw your response. 240rwhp is about right. GEARS, GEARS, GEARS Long tubes before a custom tune. Yes, dyno numbers are not worth sweating over.

I'm not sure I follow the comment on quick vs fast...
Quick is a reference to acceleration, fast is a reference to speed. I would tend to argue 3.73 would be faster (maybe), while 4.10 would be quicker.

Either way... 3.73 is a good all around street gear, especially if you want to add a supercharger down the road. 4.10 is a good gear for a normally asperated car.

DON'T street race!!! Take it to the track!!!
