I am looking at going ahead and getting a supercharger for my ride (finally) and I was wondering what gears would be the best to run? I am looking at probably getting the Paxton 2200 kit. To help with your opinons, I will probably only be able to get to the track about 4 times a year for awhile, so I am looking for more streetability than ***** to the walls fast right now. I was thinking of maybe just sticking some 4:10 gears in it and call it day, but I have been told that they may be to much and that I will have serious traction issues for daily use. So any opinions or experiences would be appreciated. Thanks everybody.

 

I would go with 4.10's

 

4.10 might bea bit much for a supercharged car unless you get some serious suspension work and some really sticky tires. I'm no pro in this area but you might be better off with 3.73 or even 3.55.

 

But doesnt the paxton not kick in till like 3k RPM's ?

 

I do have some suspension work done, whether it is considered on the serious side I guess depends on your idea of serious. I have BMR LCAs, BMR adjustable UCA, BMR Panhard Bar, and Panhard Bar support, and the BMR LCA relocation brackets. I am getting ready to purchase the Tokico D-Specs here in about a month or two. So I am think I am on the right track suspension wise but I would hate to drop the money on a set of gears and then find out that everytime I turn a corner I am all over the place (yes that is probably an exagguration but you get my point)
