Car looks to be an 06-07
It has a roots style blower on it ... no need for that much gear imo.

3.73 should be plenty.

I put 3.73's in a Procharged 05,5 speed car at a customers request and he drove it 8 miles and brought it back and asked for more gear so in went the 4.10.




Do these cars not come with 3.55's stock?

no it is an option. My 08 has 3.31's in it. Auto's come with 3.10's I believe.

Cool.



If it was my car I would do the 4.10's but if you prefer the 3.73's then good choice

If gas mileage is your concern for not going 4.10, I wouldn't let that change my mind. I don't think mileage will really be much different. You'll probably get a little better mileage in the city, actually.
