I'm now auto, currently have a roush 2.3 on the car with 3.73, I wanna go 4.10's on the set up with my 6r80. Would that be over kill or no? Who's running 4.10's with their blower and is auto?

No more gear then a 3.55 in a TVS... I run a 28" tire & 3.55's. Honestly don't know if there's any benefit to the 3.55 over the 3.15 or 3.30

Keep the gears stock. I run 3.15 with a 28 inch tire mid 10s at 131.6mph on 85mm pulley stock airbox stock converter on e85. I have seen many guys trying to go more gear and go a little slower.

Did you get your auto tune related issue sorted? New ECU?

And I say 3.55's/3.31's as well

We have had great luck with our 2011 and 3.73 gears. It sixty foots like a monster.

That said, the internet says that is a no-no...and to run 3.15's. So, I am going to use the 3.15's in my new car/TVS Combo.

Yes I did, I'm waiting for the harness for the Trans and I had to get a auto ECU.
Why is 3:73 not a good gear ratio for the auto and my blower? I want it to be a 1/4 mile machine
