![]() What do you have now?
3.73's are good all around, 4.10's can really put on a show with slicks and aggressive driving on a track, I chose to have something in between, 3.90's, yes they do make them for the 8.8, i found that they are rare in 8.8's though I heard too many stories about hitting the rev limiter in 4th gr with 4.10's on the strip, i can see how, cuz my car is about 5800-6k at the topend.

![]() It has stock gears that I think are 3.08s, when I looked up the code, and I forgot to mention it has a t-5

![]() One of my favorite quotes!
"Don't fear the gear!" If you have a T5, throw 4.30's in it and don't look back. Tire size comes into play a bit, but unless you're running something that has a 26 or smaller diameter, go with the 4.10 Absolutely no way I would even consider 3.73's with a stick car. 4.10's or better. The "ass dyno" will thank you! ![]()
