He fears the gear!

No but really, 4.10's are great from NA stangs and sticky tires. But on street tires with a kenne bell @9psi- moving from 4.10's to 3.73's is probably going to help out with traction significantly. I hope you like it.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! DON'T FEAR THE GEAR!!!

Yeah, I bet 4.10's and that KB makes traction difficult lol

It's *occasionally* fun to be traction limited, but gets old pretty fast. I'd much rather feel the car hook and pull .6-.8G instead of making a bunch of noise and going no where.

I really dislike my winter traction. All season tires tend to get hard below about 20-30 degrees and even my pathethic NPI can spin the tires hard in 2nd with 3.27s. Spinning in 3rd is even possible if there is salt down. It's just no fun at all after a while.

4.10's are fun with the blower, but I have had issues with them ever since they were installed. It had a rythmic vibration for the past 3 years or so, which is VERY annoying. I was also bouncing off of my rev limiter when I went through the traps at the strip. 4.10 + Kenne Bell = No Traction at all in first and second gear, and now that i put that gatorback on, its making 11 psi... when i took it to the shop, i did a first through fourth pull on a back road and it hooked in fourth until i made full boost. the rear end started to drift off to the right at 70 mph... so 4.10's are not FTW with all that boost. I cant wait to see what it will do with 3.73's. Im hoping for low 12's this spring.
