Default 4.88s!! :D

Ive got a 318 with 6 inchs of lift all suspension and 35 inch tires.... I got 4.88s installed... Guys it runs like a champ... sooooo much power has been given back to me, on high way it does great. Its my DD, I take highway to school everyday too. So much stress off tranny and TQ converter.
Highly recommended.

Better in town actually, around same on highway maybe a lil less.. also its about 4-6 MPH off but just get a tom-tom or borrow one and figure out correct mileage.

YES!!! 4.88s man, I own the hills haha, my tranny and TC love me again lol, you definatly get your giitty up back, its pretty awesome man....shift points are much stronger and your RPMs dont sky rocket goin up hills they gradually climb as your truck does... HIGHLY RECOMENDED! and yes im soon getting the SCT tune from hemifever.
