Import Slayer,

I still have the 2.73's too and they absolutely SUCK

when you run the 1320'. It's either spin or bog with them.

I also do alot of highway driving too and went with the 3.55's, just haven't installed them yet. I have heard on this site that going with these from the 2.73's you'll lose 2-3 mpg.

I have been in cars with 4.30's, 4.10's and 3.42's and they all make a big difference.

I say get the 3.55's and leave the 3.08's for someone else who doesn't want to race their car.
