auto and gears

[scott2001GT]

I have a 2001 Mustang GT AUTO. My next mod will me gears I know for sure. But idk which ones. 4:10s or 4:30's. I will not do 3:73's or lower or 4:56's higher. It's thoughs 2 I can't decide between. It's a weekend car and I pretty much only do dig races. some rolls at times. The track is once a year. But I want the best punch. I am concered with top speed. I want atleast 120 and I will be doing a SCT x3 tune with a custom tune. Do you have or knowanyome with a 4R70W 99-04 GT that runs 4:30's?(auto)

Thanks alot

auto=4.10s!!

[pRojekt02GT]

I wish I could help a fellow 4R70W'er..I'm almost certain you have 3.27's, right?..I'm a bit stumped myself on gear choices, I was told 3.73's since I drive it daily but..I'm sure someone will chime in.

[scott2001GT]

yes that is stock. but I need more lol idk! I want to make the right choice

[scott2001GT]

so i comt to you's for help

[2001GTTT]

4.10s definitely. thats what you want.

[pRojekt02GT]

3.73's for an everyday driver though, right?...

3.73's for an everyday driver though, right?...

in a v6 auto ...YES! it will rev out to fast with 4.10s. the gt's redline higher tho so you can get away with 4.10s in a auto gt

in a v6 auto ...YES! it will rev out to fast with 4.10s. the gt's redline higher tho so you can get away with 4.10s in a auto gt

What rev's out faster w/ the 4.10's, a V6 or the 4.6?

What rev's out faster w/ the 4.10's, a V6 or the 4.6?

any car will rev out faster to shift to 2nd and so on. the gt redlines higher so it will take longer for the shift so you stay in the power band a little longer. in a v6 since it redlines at 5k you will go through the power band to fast

[scott2001GT]

the v6 will

[scott2001GT]

but 4:30s would be badass.....................

[scott2001GT]

but idk about top speed

[97LaserRed]

your cruiseing speed at 65 would be like 4500 rpm?? maybe 5000?? idk with 4.30s

[scott2001GT]

with O/D off maybe i am not sure. arond 4500 I think. but I am wondering on top speed as well.

[2001GTTT]

theres a certain GT on this board with 4.10's that goes well in excess of 170mph...oh yea...bolt on car only.

[laz2447]

auto - 4.10's
5spd - 3.73's

[pRojekt02GT]

auto - 4.10's
5spd - 3.73's

Way to clear that up. I asked Brian the form of that question almost twice, lmao, and it never really got answered.

4.10's in the auto for a daily and 4.30's for a track whore. I had 4.10's in my 01 gt auto and daily drove it for 3 years. Also I could still hit around 130 in 3rd with the 4.10's so top speed really isn't an issue.
