373 or 410? Im about to switch to a m6 and I currently have 323 and and put 341hp and 356 tq to the wheels. My concern in which will I feel a diff in the seat of my pants feel when I get on it? Few mechanic buddys say I should run 410s to help my car feel like I have more power. Idk lol please help. Thanks guys

I'd go 4.10's even if your a DD. I have 4.10's in my auto, its not a DD but if I had to I could. W/ 4.10's and doing 75mph you will only be turning 2000rpms. For a comparison I turn 2800rpms at the same speed. I had a friend who ran 4.56's on his ls1 6spd. He had to shift to 5th at the track till he went with a taller tire. Even with 4.56's and street tires (26in)it still wasn't bad.

in my 6spd going from 3.23 to 4.10 felt like i gained 100ft lbs tq and lost 500 lbs lol, gears can make a huge diff, just going from auto to manual you should feel a little more seat of the pants with a more direct connection to the wheels, aka no torque converter slipping before it locks
