4.10's and love them on the highway I knock down over 23mpg. and 60-100 I eat up people. Raced my buddy who's fox has 3.73's and alot more parts than me and pulled him by a car. However with your 5th you may prefer the 3.73 on the highway. As far as the other upgrades I suggest comparing the $ you would spend to the HP gained and decide if it is worth it to you. If your buying new parts I don't think it would be worth it at least not to me, however if you can score used parts cheap then....

Yeah? And how about racing past 100, becuase hell I CRUISE at 80+ so racing ont he highway goes over a 100 with ease... You'll get owned most of the time in a close race with 4.10s ore 4.30s going that fast.

3.73s here. Love em but I also know that 4.10s would definitely not be too much. 3.73s just happened to be a better choice for me. The car would have been quite happy with 4.10s back there too.

What are you going to do when someone rolls up next to you on the highway? Just stop right there and go from a dig?

I guess that depends on if other people are around Only thing roll races are good for is to see how much new mods improved your car. Like when me or a buddy gets a new mod we like to go do some roll races to see how much the mod really affected our cars. Other than that roll races are useless and for pussies and if somebody did try to race me on the highway I would probably just look over them and give them a look like I think your a complete dumbass.

Since you live in NH, I'd go with the 3.73's if you plan to drive in snow/ice which I do. If you have a winter car, go for the 4.10's.
