yes I have a m6.

I've heard 4.10's increase acceleration, so do they increase top speed too? Sorry for silly question, I'm new to the game, especially gears..

They'll be just fast enough to find the weakest link in your engine or drivetrain.

Not top speed. 5th and 6th gears are overdrive, so you won't be able to pull with those up top.

I think ~128 mph in 4th is about where you can go with 4.10s. But again, I never tried going past 120 in 5th...
