Default stock drive ratio on a WS6

do they come stock with 3:42's and would it be better to gain some pick up time to change to 3:73's

Well pornstar, if your car is a M6 and still has stock gearing then you have 3.42's, if its a A4 then you could have any # of gearing, you can check with a local chevy dealer and run your VIN # and they can tell you (if its a A4)

Why not just look at the thread I posted, and walk out to the car and look on the door for the code? Would be much much easier than calling a chevy dealer and having them run the vin.

Im pretty sure that A4 WS6's came with the 3.23 gear stock, but im not too sure on that.

A4 WS6's have 3.23's, and they are a great all around gear. M6 car's all come with 3.42's stock. 3.73's aren't worth the upgrade, go 4.10's....do it once and do it right.
