Gears are going to be my next investment. Anyone have any opinions on the 4.57s or the 4.77s? I would like to have first hand experience. What are some likes and dislikes you have? Thanks.

 

Little more info like, "my car will be a weekend/track car" "it'll be a daily driver" etc would help.

 

Daily driver, but I could care less about highway RPMs, gas mileage etc.

I wanted 5.1's but would be hitting the rev limiter in 6th on a couple tracks. Just doesn't work for me

 

4.57 since your not track qualified, and the accel mph/ft is about the same as the 4.77

//Both ratios are sweet...

 

Considering that most people say the 4.57 & 4.77 have about the same Accel.

Get the 4.77, that way you have a higher topend still.\

*edit*

Instead, Sell your S & BUY MY TEG!!!

The 4.57 would give a higher top end.

By only a couple of miles per hour right?

Does anyone think the 4.10s have any advantage over the 4.77s? Besides highway RPMs etc.

Only if you're going with boost.

4.10 is stock. Hope you weren't planning to buy it.

wrong... 4.56/7 will have a higher top speed then the 4.77

4.77 on an ap1 tops out around 146mph
4.56/7 on an ap1 tops out around 153mph

give an take a couple mph here and there for speedo error, downhill/uphill, tailwind/headwind.. yada yada yada.....

 

4.57 works better for boost rather than the 4.77 for a SC right?

Correct me if im wrong but the 4.77 is ment for track purposes, for holding out your gear longer much higher revs etc..

/He still hasnt told us if hes boosting his S.

 

4.77's aren't just meant for track purposes. On some tracks 4.77's will actually hurt you. In these rare cases, the 4.56 would be better. A local HC racer has 3 different diffs and gears depending on which track he will be running. He has the 4.77, 4.4, and 4.1's

 

what would yall go with if you had to drive the car everyday i am thinking about the 4.57? what would yall suggest and were is a good place to get the gears from and last question what about a price for the upgrade?

Actually 4.77 would give you shorter gears vs. the 4.57s, meaning a lower speed at the same RPM.

 

what are some places that you can buy the gears from and do they come as a gear set or does it come as the whole diff.

 

AP1=4.77
AP2=4.57


Thats all you need to know!!
