I got a GFT5 and now I'm thinking my 3.55's are too tall. Crunching the numbers has revealed to me that a set of 4.10 gears would bring the RPM range right back to where they were with the 3.55's and the stock T5 with the exception of 4th - that gear would more fun than before. What are other people running?

Well not totally sure on the numbers but 4.10s sounds great because of the lower 1-3 ratios. How do u like it? Is it noisy? Did you get the .59 5th gear for better milage?

Yes I got the .59 5th. With my 3.55's at 70mph I am turning 2000 rpm. There is no drone. With 4.10's at 70 I will be turning 2300rpm. I does have a whine in the first 3 gears.

Sweet!! Its good to see more people with the gforce. Im going to do it during next summer. I would say 4.10s are gonna be great with the lower first three gears. THen with the .59 OD it will be even better cause u wont be to high on the freeway.
