Default Question about...

I have a 2.2L f22c J's racing stroker kit, J's Racing header, J's Racing Tuschinko Intake. I plan on getting a J's Racing throttle body and Ricks or J's gears. Was wondering what gear ratio I should go with ( keep in mind this is my daily driven car ), and what size throttle body I should get.



Thanks, Justin.

Most seem to prefer the Rick's 4.57r for the AP1.

The Throttle body you should get is the 66mm.

A lot of people have said the 4.77's are too short of gears and are usually a pain for a daily driver (YMMV). On the other hand 4.44's (I think that's the right number) are too long to make a significant difference over stock. 4.56/57's seem to be the good midpoint.

I don't know how much the J's gears are, but I imagine they are over priced and offer little to no benefit over those from Ricks2k. You could tell everyone you have J's gears, and how the hell would they know?
