Default Quick question about 4.10s....quick seriously

4.10s add torque but dont take away HP right?

they add no horsepower or torque... they just let the engine rev faster to get in the hp range of the engine...this is done thur the rear wheels not the engine

they add torque at the wheels but decrease total RPM to the wheels so in the end HP is unchanged.

higher (num) gears are dyno proven to cost a few hp, but all that matters is you accelerate faster right

I knew it would last....... you won't lose hp it will lower the hp in the same mph level.. this is becuase the end of the rpm range of the engine will come up quicker meaning the car will run out sooner..
