sweet...you really think i could do 11s?? i was thinking more like really high 12s or more on street tires (which is all I'll be using 255/45zr17)...i am definitely going with a lower gear for the rear...i had 3.73s in mind...but 4.10s does sound pretty good..might consider if i can get away with it and a kiesler tremec.
