It all depends on your plans. Go 3.55s if you plan a power adder, blowers don't like too low of a gear. -------------------- 91 Mustang GT ET: 11.92@115 66 Mustang ET: 11.43@119 01 Audi S4 ET: 10.8@131 05 Audi S4 ET: 11.9@116 08 Audi S5 ET: 11.9@118 Posts: 416 | From: Lathrop | Registered: Mar 2004  |  :
