Wow. That's pretty low. I'd probably save a ton of oil and gas with highway rpms like that.

i was thinking it would be spinning like 3000 or something close to that, maybe i should call back and change them to 4.10. do you guys know what the top speed would be with 3.73 and 4.10?

thanks again

Top Speed? How often are you at 6300rpm's in 5th????
never had it past about 4200 in 5th, i was just wondering if with 4.10(or 3.73) the car will be able to cruise down the road at atleast 120 without revving the snot out of it

I like it...the Zspec tranny has a .63 OD as opposed to the .68 on the WC T5. The G-Force tranny I want to get eventually has a .59, so it will be badass w/ 4.10's on the hwy and still have low 2k rpm's......
