gear and turbo question


Hey yall, I figured I would post this here, it may be in the wrong forum, if it is I'll move it, I have an 03 stage 1 Roush V6 5speed, I'm wanting to make it a daily driver I can take to the local strip(1/8th mile) and still run, I'm going to do a windstar intake kit, sct tuner, under driver pulleys, turbo and gears, my question is, should I run a 3.73 or 4.10? why or why not? also if someone could recommend me a good turbo kit I would appreciate it

Turbos dont like a whole lotta gear. They need the extra load to spool. I would do 3.55's, 373's at most.

with your tranny I'd stick with a 3:27 to 3:55. Honestly man I'd keep them stock and save the dough.

With a 2 speed 3:55 or 3:73 with a 28in tire would do well.
