I am not gonna argue but i am curious, i heard there isnt a noticable difference between those two gears.

Now i would think between 4:10 and 3:55 there would be a difference....Just wondering!

i got mine done for $100 but it was from a guy i knew. shop around and it doesn't hurt to tell one guy that the last said he would do it cheaper.

e.g. if one guy quotes you $200 tell him "the dude down the street said he would do it for $150" alot of times that'll make him lower his prices to compete.

with a power adder you can run out of gear if you have 4:10's.
it kicks you into boost too quick.
