Stall torque ratio. Higher numbers hit harder.

Depends on your tire and suspension. If your tire can't hold that 2.5 str, it would be pointless. Your best bet would be to call Yank and let them know everything about your car and have them help you choose.

unless you plan on using slicks or 15 inch rims and nittos id go with the 2.2 str my tci3500 2.5 str trashes my 315-35-17 nittos ... i know next time round im gonna do a 4400 stall and 2.2 str but like i said thats for best performance on a streetable tire

Fuddle 3800 with a 2.2 str here and MS3. But I spray my car too. If you are staying on motor, I would go with a 4000-4600, but if you are spraying it, 3200-3800.
