half a second?! If you're coming from 3.42s, then you might see a tenth or two. Its not really that big of a jump.

3.42's are stock in 6spd cars, 3.23 or 2.73 for autos.

3.73s will be better then 4.10's with nitrous. But without the nitrous, you wont see any huge gains by changing to 3.73's.

Hopefully, I can get some 4.11's installed in my car by the end of the year.
