you're going to gain a 10.3% advantage in mechanical torque by doing the 4.57 gear swap. (4.1 / 4.57 * 100)

finished the head rest wind blockers. helps a little bit but well worth it considering how much it ended up costing me. 4bucks for a sheet of clear plastic at pms hobby. also was able to make a extra set for my buddy's S.

very easy to do. just pull off the cover piece on the head rest and use that as a template to trace on the plastic sheet. you'll have to cut it a little bit larger so that it wont fall out of the hole.
