RE: LSD!
Gears make your engine have more RPM's are certain speed.
Some numbers off the top of my head
Stock: 75 mph=2200 rpm
3.73: 75 mph=2600 rpm
4.10: 75 mph=3200 rpm
I dunno, just numbers off the top of my head.
They make your car quicker, not FASTER, quicker. They can shave a few .0x off your 1/4 easily.

Seconded.
Do gears+LSD at the same time, it'll make your car soooo much more fun to drive.
This is what I plan on doing first.
If you have a stick, I rec 3.73's, if you're an auto, 4.10's.

RE: LSD!
Well it also depends on how you drive, are you mostly interstate? city? is it your weekend only car?
There's a lot of things to put into consideration. I reccomended those off of my own perference.
Quicker, yes faster off the line and into the end point
Faster, more hp/torque.
Sorry I suck at explaning things

OK, quicker, not faster, that's very clear... not!
I think I see what you mean.
Quicker = faster take-off's, more torque.
Faster = Higher top speed.
Gears actually make your car slower, but you can achieve that speed faster...
Wait, now I'm confused. j/k
From what I understand, new lower ratio gears will force you to shift faster if in a manual, and reduce the chance of bog, but decrease your fuel economy.

3.73s changed about 500rpm on my car at cruising speeds on the freeway, so 4.10s would do even more.
