Okay, so one of the guys that works out at the gym with me has a black '06 that looks EXACTLY like my '07. The ONLY differences in the cars are my window tint, SLP's, and I have 3.31's. We both have 5 speeds, 17 inch wheels, I mean these cars are identical. His car has 3.55's and I was asking if he had drivin' the 3.31's. He said he hadn't. I wanted the 3.55's but couldn't find one.
So, we were on our way home on a 4 lane divided highway around 60 mph. We decided to see how they would do against each other. I had the car in third at as best I could tell was exactly 60 on my car, he said he did the same. He honked three times, he got the slightest of the jump on me; but, I started pulling on him. Not super fast, and I would say more of a creeping on him. We tried it again and the same thing.
The last run we tried was a 4th gear run from 65. It produced almost identical results. By the time I had hit 95-100, I would say I was about 3/4 - 1 car length ahead.
I thought 3.55's were supposed to be better for performance. We both had full tanks of gas and we are 15 pounds of eash other weight wise. Maybe I'm thinking now that I don't want to get rid of the 3.31's? Any thoughts?
