I don't think it's even been asked...what are your plans for the car?? Staying N/A or is a power adder in your future? If so, which one??
You have to consider all this before you can make the correct choice?

If that's all you are planning to do get 4.30s. If i had more balls i would have but i am also planning on adding a 100 shot at some point.

I rev 2,876.4 at 80mph.
The T-45 revs higher in 5th than the TR-3650.

I'll be getting either 3.55s or 3.73 sometime over the summer hopefully. I wouldn't go 4.10s again i dont think. In a 5 speed i just think its a bit over kill. Especially with gas the way it is. Personal opinion though. But as much highway driving that i do, i wouldn't want 4.10s.

So 3.73 or 3.55s for me in my 02 GT. But i MIGHT power-add her sometime in a year or two, so i think i'll be leaning towards 3.73s just so i dont have to do gears twice.
