Default Gearing Question for 03 Cobra?

With my mods what would be the best choice for gears?
4.10
3.90
3.73
I want the car to still be enjoyable to drive around town and on the highway, but I also want a harder launch.

a 3.73 will add about 2-3 mph at the track. Proven, otherwise I woudl stick with the 3.55 gears as mentioned.

yeah unless your going to go with a cintrifical s/c like the procharger. Otherwise if your not i would stay or 3.73s but, is it worth your money to just go up that little bit.

dont let people try to talk you out of it saying blah blah this and that blah blah, its all about 4.10's. Seriously, overall, your only going to lose 2 mpg at most, also, you can still drive it around like a DD if you so please. It doesnt yank to hard to accelerate at normal speeds, but when you WOT, youll be damn glad you got the 4.10's. Take my word...
