Well I havent really dug to deep regarding speeds....All I know is that when cruising at 65-70 I see about 2800rpms which isnt all that bad, and the performance of the car is night and day then the 3.73s

1st gear is pointless....

2nd gear come and goes quick

3rd gear the car is an absolute monster

4th still pulling hard......and thats all that matters

I currently have a 285/40/18 on the car.... And I haven't topped the car out yet.... Quickest I've been is 120mph, and it comes quick. And the car still had plenty left in it.

Lol Tom you acted suprised that I would do something crazy here... It's just the way I am man. The 4.56s aren't all that bad on the highway.... At least at 70 that is... Once you start pushing 80-90 mph it would get annoying

i drove the other day on the hwy in fouth at about 2800RPM....you a crazy mofo dude. thats up there. although the car was a rocket on the hwy without downshifting. i think 4.10s are probably right for me.

what are the speeds in gear(s) with the 4.56s?
These speeds are with 27" tires, which scott is running, and a 6500rpm shift.
1st: 34mph
2nd: 57mph
3rd: 87mph
4th: 114mph
5th: 168mph


200 away from 10,000..... I have lost my mind haha.

My goal for 2011 is to reach 10,000 posts.
That is a goal thats easily achievable...:lol2:

I think you'll be lookin for 5th gear in the 1/4...?
Not with his power level. If he does ever decide to make some decent power the 4.56's will have to go asap.
