Just put 4.10s in my 99 TA and it really made it wake up! I put them in yesterday and it really made a bigger change in the way the car ran than waht I had thought it would. Should have done it long time before.

reply First gear is really short if your on it, but normall driving I still use it some or just take off in second. When you are in the throttle though they made the car really pull hard. I put them in the stock rear end also.

reply They are factory GM gears. If they are set up correctly there will me no noise at all. If you do use brand new gears you will need to use regular gear oil to break them in for a few hundred miles and then after that you can use synthetic oil.

Guess you dont do much highway driving.. Or you like the RPM's to stay around 3.1K-3.2K all the time (on the highway). For me, it was too much.

yeah 75 mph spinning 2050 to be exact here, I just sheared 3 teeth of my 4.10s put in a stock rear with a girdle. Just be easy on them and get them set right, Mine i think were set too deep, i had a **** load of noise cruising anything over 45 mph.

reply I got my computer back today from TSP. They did all of the normal tuning on it and fixed the spedo for the gears. It is not as bad as I thought it was. 65MPH is 1700-1800 RPM in sixth gear. I am really pleased with it.
