I was wondering what gears you guys are running with your Kenne Bell equipped GTs. With all that torque down low I was wondering if too high a gear is needed for daily street duty. I know on centrifugal blown motors it is all at top end. so a 3.73 or 4.10 gear is perfect. But an a roots style type I don't know if that much gear would cause very little traction due to the instant torque down low. I was wondering if the 9 psi kit is over kill for a daily driven stang-by the way my car is a 2000gt 5speed. 9psi or 6psi and what gears?

I don't have the KB, but have talked to people that are running it with 3.73's. They all seem to like it. I think that 4.10 would be too much.

I love the 3.73's on my supercharged '02.

I had planned on 3.73's before I installed the KB. But after it was installed I tried the stock 3.27's and pulled off a 12.3 @ 114 in Phoenix so I think I am sticking to the stock gears for now although I am curious if 3.73's would have helped or hurt. Even with 3.27's traction is difficult.
