Changing Rear Gears on Gen6 V6?

BradfordCamaro · 12-20-2015, 08:36 PM

Is this something that is a no brainer? Nothing new - same old, same old?

Or are we looking at something totally new?

3.27 just seems - Boring

Options? Where should I look for info?

Thanks.

(I don;t care about mileage - I get 12MPG with my truck)

I'm interested as well. Are there currently any OEM 4.10:1 ring/pinions available for this application?

i'd be interested in swapping the manual's lsd into the automatic even if the gear ratio was the same.

i almost did the same lol. i was having trouble getting the one i wanted dealer traded took over 2 weeks. all most said screw it.. only thing that stoped me was the fact that was paying 40k for a car without leather.. 4 and a half months later i still love my car but almost wish i had an ss.. getting frustrated i want to do things to my car!!!!

I have the manual with 3.73's and I'm seriously thing about making a set of 4.10's my next upgrade. I've done cat back custom exhaust already. I believe this is the same 8.6" rearend that's in the gen 5.

My v6 a8 is on the 2.77 by the time i finally shift into 3rd i'm going over 70, I would be happy with the 3.27 out of the 2liter, but I'm watching this area very closely for some real gearing options

be too early in the build, I don't see ant options for rear ends yet.
too bad I could not get an optional choice like with the Mustang offers.

I could use a 3.55 rear in my V-6, that is whenever my car gets delivered.
