Take the 3.55 and sell them. Use the money to buy 3.73s

Depends on what your future goal is. I was going to go with 3.73s. But now since I'm going to put a blower on it, I'm putting 3.55s.

3.73s on N/A applications
3.55s on power adders.

That's the "general" idea. But I do have an idea, USE THE SEARCH!

I would go with the 3.73's they are a great addition to a car. 3.55's are good but 3.73's are better. You won't regret the upgrade.

Click to expand...

.18 of an RPM. That might sound like a smartass reply, but think about it....it's not very significant. 3.55 vs. 4.10s would be more of a dramatic difference. For getting free gears, i'd go with the 3.55s, or just do as someone else said and sell the 3.55s and buy the 3.73s.
