N/A is naturally aspirated, meaning no forced induction

3:55 or 3:73 would be good choices. no more or no less.

+1 If you have any kind of poweradder on your car (with the exception of nitrous) I would not go higher than 3.73's. If your pushing 8-9+ I would go with 3.55's. NA I wouldnt go lower than 4.10's 5spd or auto but alot of people dont agree with me on that.....

im kinda with you on the 4:10's too, but i went 3:73 so i could drive it on the interstate alot more. i like the feel of 4:10's though.
