Default Gears!

Okay- I've decided that my next mod will be a Ring and pinion set.

First, has anyone bought from places like West Coast Differentials, or National Drivetrain, or should I just get them from Summit or someone like that?

Second, which? I mostly drive the car for my own shits and giggles. I don't bracket race, or even really plan on going to the track. If some idiot pulls up next to me at a light, I will light him up, though.

I may run some highway miles, but no more than 100 miles/week on the highway. Usually, the car is parked in the garage until Friday night, and goes back into hibernation on Sunday. The car will NOT be driven in the snow.

Here's what I'm thinking...

1.) Having 4.10's will give me good, fun running from lights, corners, and around my house (country area)

2.) Having 4.10's will pretty much prevent me from driving too fast on the highway, because I can't stand constant droning engine noise. (Go figure) (And I can't afford the tickets)

3.) The car will never have a blower.

4.) If I get the 3.73's, I'll always wish I'd gotten the 4.10's.

Help!
