Basically it would be like lowering all for gears about 1/2 a gear. On the interstate driving in 4th would be almost like driving in 3rd with the stock diff.

If you only used the car in town, or on a race track, it might be OK. Long trips would be noisy.

I am using a 4.09 rear gear. I do have a 6 speed but the 4th gear is a 1.00. Cruising around town is great. With the torque and boost of the motor you can accelerate from 1500rpm to 6000 and cover or break all speed limits.

I was contemplating that with keeping the 4 speed and running the dif I am using. But cruising at 3800 rpm to get 70mph would be annoying for long trips.
