WRONG!!! It will be a total night and day difference...the only better bang for the buck is nitrous. The average gain is .3-.5 off your 1320 with good driving and traction.

no the 3.55s are a $100 option on 05-07s (08 it goes to $300 option what a ripoff!)...

so wait, I could still have 3.31's? could anyone that KNOWS they have 3.31's see what RPM they are at in 5th gear at 60mph? my tack was just above 1750 but definitely below 2000, so I am estimating it was 1800RPM. It would really really help me out.

worse case scenario, I will upload the tune with 3.31 as the gear ratio and follow beside someone going 60 and see if my speedometer is accurate. if not I will reupload with the 3.55 ratio and see if it is accurate then. but i'd really like to get it done first shot. thanks!

^^^ no problem, but remember what I said: regardless of your factory gearing, the 4.10s are awesome...
p.s. have you considered my suggestion of calling your VIN into a dealer?

yeah, i considered it. but i don't like people in general, so calling is not something i really do LOL. if no one can post up a definitive "at 60mph in 5th gear, 3.31's/3.55's are 1800RPM" i will go with my idea to drive side by side with someone going 60mph to see if the speedometer is accurate.

No the 100 option was in 07, not the 05-06....YOU HAVE 3.55 FROM THE FACTORY

so i got in touch with my inner ghetto, and found out my stock gear ratio. i back the car up to the curb on my street (about a 6" curb), and gently backed up onto it and stopped. i crawled under and saw a sticker that said "3 55 LS" (i think it was LS, i could be wrong). so, 3.55 it is. thanks for all the help guys!
