Alright, I am looking at getting some gears but I dont know which ones to get 3.73 or 4.10. I have been searching the posts and I find people that talk good things about both. I drive on highways a lot and I dont want to kill my gas mileage, but I want something that will make a noticeable difference. Has anybody had experience with both of them? If so help me out

get 4.10s, you will deff feel the difference, i got 4.30s an my car pulls like a mother**cker. i dont drive on the highway though so thats why i went with those. i have been on the highway before an it really isnt as bad as everyone thinks, if you use the highway alot then having 4.30s would probably annoy you but, i know people with 4.10s in their daily drivers an they arnt bad at all.

4.10's rip your neck like a mofo and 3.73's are perfect with my set-up, IMO.

4.10's are nifty, and didn't change my mileage at all. I also do a lot of highway driving. I do tend to have a light foot most of the time.

All not another 4:10 vs 3:73 post. Damn..... Sike naw i'm going w/ 3:73's b/c it's going to be a daily driver and i'm moving to Vegas. (I might have to drive, which is bull but) 3:73's is a good all around gear. The only difference between the 2 are 300 or so rpm. Look at the future, are u going F/I, or are u staying N/A? 4:10's might be 2 much for a blower. I'm eventually going to switch 2 a T56 and a blower so........

Yup, welcome to the boards, but get in the habit of searching. With a 5 speed, go with 3.73's. Especially since you said you drive on the highway a lot.

And don't worry about it not being a noticeable difference; the difference will be a very noticeable difference.

if ur going with a blower, get 3:55's or possibly 3.73's, if u have an auto definitely get 4.10's, if u cant decide between 3.73's and 4.10's and u have a manual, get 3.90's
