Rear End


ok, in the long run i'm thinking of either supercharging or turboing my v6, i'm leaning more towards the turbo to be honest, but anyway, i want to get gears this summer and i didn't know if it would be a good idea to get an 8.8 rear or if i can leave my 7.5 on and still run 4.10's and all sorts of other good stuff?

+1 with a turbo your probably going to have the spider gear blues with a 7.5 rear end. and id go with the 3.55 cuz the turbo is going to make up for what u lose with the gear set and it will help yah with the fuel millage with the turbo.
