RP 4.30 gearing.......worth it?
i had a auto-5spd swap done (91 N/A) and was considering chaning my rear-end.
how much more accel. improvement will i get going from a 3.90 to a 4.30? is it worth it?
also, just to confirm, once the rear-ends r switched, ill improve accel, but loose top end?
thanks

Going from a 3.90 to a 4.33 will improve every bit of acceleration and obtainable top speed. It will reduce your potential top speed a few mph, but you will never get your car up to around 170mph anyways. Only thing it will hurt is gas mileage, which won't be very noticable.
