4.44 Will give you the best gas mileage of the three, 4.77 will give you the best acceleration....4.56 is a compromise between the two.

I have 4.77's and its a ying and yang thing really. Good part of it is I have decent lowend in every gear. Car speeds up to 9k quickly and definetly pulls harder than stock.

Bad part is your doing so much shifting its really only a bit quicker than stock.

Would it be best to just save your money and go F/I? I have been contemplating gears for a while.
