i think if you go any bigger, your gas mileage would suffer and if your doing highway driving your rpm's will be high, also.

I started with 3.23s and had both 3.73s and 4.10s. 3.73s were great around town, but i just didnt notice a difference at all with them... the car was just slightly more peppy... whereas with the 4.10s i can definatly feel them and it rocks. 3.73s werent noticeable at all on the highway. 4.10s run higher obviously, but i never really found it that much of a problem. BUT i'm also running taller tires in back with the 4.10s now. it just depends on how much highway driving you do!

i love my 4.10s!

anything is better than the crappy 2.73 gears i have

, but hopefully that will change here soon once i get some money. i plan on 3.73s and a torque converter about a 3500 stall. i heard torque converters really wake A4s up alot.
