go with a 2.73 gear......................YOull set new land speed records.............................


j/k depends what your want the car to do. For pretty much only dragstrip stuff youll want a 4.10 or a 4.56. For highway usage 3.55 or 3.73. Any of those ghears will be a NOTICABLE improvement for you car cuz yougot the 3.08. Personally I like my 3.27, best 60ft time Ive gotten with that gear was 1.8.
