Can anyone tell me what difference I can expect by changing the gears in my 2006 Mustang Gt from stock to 4:10's

4.10's will put you at 3000rpm's at 80mph with an auto and at about 2750 with a manual. Good gear!

When changing gears, you will need to have your pcm reflashed to correct the speedometer. You can do it with a hand tuner or have the dealer do it.

so is it basically useless because you will be soo short that you willhave to shift at like 30something? or are you being sarcastic?

I don't know what he's talking about. With 4.10's, yes I can pull from a stop in 2nd gear but rarely do that, especially on a hill, then pulling off in 2nd would do nothing but wear out the clutch prematurely.

I have a 5 spd manual tranny and have had my 4.10s in for about 8 months now.
1st gear goes to 35
2nd to 56
3rd to 90 (i think)
4th to 116
and 5th I've taken it to 150....then got scared lol

Only thing now is before the switch I could get over 60 mph with only one shift....now I shift twice, not a bad thing, since I installed my Hurst short throw at the same time
