pretty sure you got 3.08's. I have 3.73's now after switching from 4.10's. YOu'll like 3.73's a huge difference from the stockers. As for the top end of fourth I've never been up that high on the street so I'm not sure but I don't think it'll be close to 130 maybe 110. Hopefully someone else can chime in to give you a for sure answer.

I have stock 3.08's and i think i can pull almost 125 in 4th right before redline. I am looking to going to a 3.55 just to give me a little more gear but also to help my highway. i Spend most of my time on the highway back and forth to work. So i need as much help as i can get in the MPG dept. I right now get about 16-17 which sucks. I had my old 95 GT Vert getting 25 on the highway on a long trip down to savannah. I would go with a 3.73 or a 3.55 if you do alot of city driving you could go to a 3.90. If you go to a 4.10 you really won't get any traction in first. I have a hard enough time with my stock gears keeping traction and i still have just about 3/32 on my tires almost 4. I have a set of bridgestone Potenza's too. so sorry for the rambling but thats my .02 cents

1st - 30/35mph (cant remember exactly)
2nd - 60mph
3rd - 90mph
