I have mine available as well, if someone wants them to try.
His idea actually doesn't sound that bad, but not really my cup of tea.

I really like the 3.31s. Ive had 3.73s and 4.10s several times and i like these the most. I think it will be awesome once the blower goes on. A real managable gear with boost on the street.

That's more like it. Lol. Sounds like someone at the dealer reset the readout or something.

I usually grab around 25-28 on the highway according to the dash depending on hills and such.
City, if I cruise, I break 20s pretty easily.
But what fun is that?
