Default 4.44 gears
i'm getting some 4.44 gears real soon in about a week or less...does that ratio make noises like other ratio gears do? and how are they compared to stock ratio? thanks.

4.77 with boost and 1st gear is useless.

4.56
Richmond Gear

(4.57R's are not available anymore. Whiney Bastards! )

The BEST compromise.
Nice acceleration in all gears, good driveability and still 241 km/h.

4.56 => The final drive ratio the S2000 should have been made with.

I came up on a deal with 4.44's so that's why I'm getting on those...and 4.77's are no use for me because I drive on the freeway a lot and those gears will make me waste more gas...but 4.44 sounds good for me to go.
