Hey guys! All the answers are right here at your finger tips. Go to the site map and click on "Analyzer". Scroll down to the bottom. You can pick any combo of gear ratios and tire diameter you want and you will get all the data that you need and then some.

Don't forget, the higher the gear ratio number, the higher the rpm's you will run and the more fuel you will comsume. The guys that are reporting same fuel economy are getting these results because they are probably using a higher gear more often then they were before because the car pulls better than with stock gears. So, overall, they must still be running at about the same average RPMs.

Also, your top speed will decrease almost 20 mph from stock gears to 4.10s if you care. This might be an issue if you are a bank robber and are planning to outrun the law.
