Post My next mod???

OK guys/girls what do you think my next mod should? I AM getting a Viper Blueprinted T56, a shortened Al driveshaft and a set of gears from D&D Performance over the winter. What gear should I run with this tranny? What should my next mod(s) be after this is installed? Click on my link below to see what I already have in the car.

I think with the gear the viper trans has a 4.11 will equal 3.55 in a 5-speed, 4.30 will equal 3.73, and 4.56 will equal 4.11

gear ratios in the viper tranny are

1st 2.66
2nd 1.78
3rd 1.30
4th 1.00
5th .75
6th .50

4.1 or 4.3 would be nice choices

Would that be for 1st gear or 6th gear that those gears equivs apply? Thanks for the info.
