4.30s are not a highwayy gear. Its a lowend punchy gears.

Your right about the gears. I definitely like lower rolls, but I need better tires out back, i spin too much if I slam into 2nd.

[ViperGTr335]

I would be reaching speeds higher than 140, which is the max you could go with 3.73's before having to shift into 5th.

[ViperGTr335]

I don't do 1/4's very often. Most of the racing I get into is on the street, so going with 3.55's I would be prepared once I make like you said 550+. I'm building another 4v on the side as we speak, it will be Forged and ready to handle 700+ when all is said and done.

[ROBBY639]

why not 3.73?...i mean it depends on how much power you plan on making...450rwhp i would go 3.73...550+ 3.55....

[ViperGTr335]

Yeah, I have 4.30s and they are only useful if you are N/A and trying to get the most out of it. They suck as a daily driver gear, ask me how I know =) I will be switching to 3.55 once I go Forced Induction.

[ROBBY639]

the come with a stock 3.27 gear right?...im probaly going 4.10's in mine

[ralatorre9]

Most definitively, i threw 3.73 gears in my 97' cobra.

[ViperGTr335]

Yeah, this was like a 20 roll. I let off at 120.
