I have heard that the gears are great for both, NA and FI. Not sure on your other question....

4.77 is to much for an FI application....

and depending on how much power you're going to have.... will depend on the other gears..... if you're going for a little boost.. around 350rwhp then 4.57's should be ok.... if you're going a little higher then that... 4.44... and if you're going all out on power.. then keep the stock gears....

The 4.57 are also stronger than the 4.77's. Another reason to use those instead if you are going to go FI.

FWIW I have the 4.57's and I can put 4-5 cars on a stock S2k from a stop to 90.

No I've proven it. Just not to you personally. You just haven't seen it, but that doesn't mean I haven't done my own runs. I've run 2 S2000's so far, the results the same.
