I have 4.30's now. Weekend warrior.

For a weekend warrior I'd just keep the gears you have. But if you insist on changing them then I'd just go down to 4.10

[Rafa]

I was just wondering if 1st would be useless? Mostly weekend car and track here and there.

More power = less gear IMO unless u can put it all to the ground

Do you spend more time shiftin' than gettin'?

I had 3.55's and 1st and second went by fast enough. Go 3.73's

[dsrtuckteezy]

3.90 seems like a good middle ground

LOL...was waiting for that one

Haven't been able to drive it yet. Looks like keeping my 4.30's is winning with 3.55's behind it.

3V's like gears, but the KB will change things a little bit. I'm going with 3.73's.

Mine was stock 3.55's, I just recently went to 3.73's and it's a much better feel.

^^^ This ^^^

Gear makes up for torque you don't have. Too much gear is just as bad as not enough gear.

I have the 3.90 with my Kenne bell 5 speed

[Rick Modena]

I have some 3:55's ill sell you (back).

If you had a 6-speed I would say 3:73's or 3:90's, but since you have a 4-speed with a overdrive I would go 3:55's.
