I'm planning on my first blown KB twin screw stang on my 04. Around 9-10lbs of boost you wouldn't go with 4.10s?

good sticky white.... I'm a little tired of seeing that question over and over and over myself...

I've got 4:10's right now... N/A with a shit ton of torque... when I do get blown I'll probably only have 10 psi or so of boost, and I'm thinking of 3:73's, just because I think I'll be spinning out like crazy all the time with my 4:10's in there right now.

i would keep the 4.10's, don't downgrade performance, upgrade your rearend with some moser 28spline axles and get a better t-lok and put some slicks on the car. I had 3.73 on my car and wish to hell ihad 4.10's when i had the blower on the car.

i love my 4.10's with my N/A setup. its a mustang and you are adding aftermarket parts to it. there is nothing you can do to help your gas mileage. ITS A SPORTS CAR. if you are worried about gas mileage, get a kia, right tim. LMFAO!

I have 3.73 in my car and my buddy has 4.10 in his and I can't tell the difference. But gas mileage is the same in both so I say go with which ever you want. It really does depend on what you have on your car.

You definitely lose top speed with 4.10's and you dont lose top speed really with the 3.73 so if you are planning to do 150+ you should keep 3.73 lol

GET 4.10'S!!!
