Ive heard that 4th gear on the new stick 5.0's has way to short of a drive ratio? I was talking to some meatball with a 2011 kona blue stick 5.0 with 3.73's and he was telling me because of the 4th gear, 3.55'a are the best gear for that car. No idea if this is valid or not, is this true?

yeah in the MT82 5th gear is 1:1, so you have to shift into 5th in the 1/4 with 4.10's...
