even with 385whp, the 4.10s suck up top.. 120 is right about where it starts to winde down. But from 0-100 or 20-120.. it pulls like a raped ape

Yeah but the acceleration sucks up top even more with say 3.55's.

hhmm.. 4.10s might not be too bad for a manual, but for the auto, it's ridiculously short gearing (esp w/blower, stock tires) I can imagine the 5 speed having better top end than the auto with 4.10s
