What gear ratio
Car is a M6 28" tall rear tire.
76MM turbo right now making mid 500's to the rear.
Going to turn it up once I get a new rear end goal right now is 650-700 to the tire( havn't decided what im going with yet ) street / strip car.
What do you guys recommend?
Thanks

Do you plan on tracking the car a lot? Long gears are great with turbos. If you plan on doing highway pulls and such, a 3.42 gear like stock would work great. If you plan on tracking the car more a 3.73 or even a 3.90 may work. A local made 695whp thru his turbo LS1 and with 3.73s and a stick the gears matched quite well.

i'd say 70 % street with highway rolls 30% track. Of couse i say that.
Right with stock rear and 3:42 is pretty damn good right now. turing 1700ish RPMs at 70mph. Car is pretty quick from a 50 roll leaving in second. Maybe ill stick with 3:42 ish.
