I currently have 4:10's and i will be supercharging my car. Not sure if i should get longer gears to let the supercharger boost come into play longer and better for highway pulls.
You running an auto or manual? Autos, especially 4 speeds, tend to have higher (numerically lower) gear ratios which is why they came with 3.08 or 3.27 rear ends as opposed to the 2.73 manuals came with.
yea and i was possibly thinking 3:55 so i can have a longer power band for highway speeds but do you think the gearing would kill my 1/4 mile times opposed to have 4:10's
