I believe it's a red 26 tooth speedo gear. Go to www.steeda.com in the drivetrain section. They have them all listed.

I just wanted to make sure the 23 tooth was the right one before I get mine... Thats what I heard but saw you said 26 tooth at first.

Unless you want to change two gears, one of which is inside the tranny, then get a white 23 tooth drive gear. It will get you within 5%.

The red 26 tooth may be for when you change the driven gear as well, but I don't know. All I know is that I did the 23 tooth one and it's on and I'm happy with it for $15 and 5 minutes. Hope this helps.

When changing the gears to anything past 3:55s like 3:73s or 4:10s you need the 23 tooth , but dont you also have to change the transmission drive gear also to be exact?
