Are you concerned about mileage or speed?

4.44... Unless you want to go above 140MPH.

I'd say 4.44 and then smack yourself in the head for running 100+ on the highway.

Now, back to our regularly scheduled program:
Rick's is about to offer 4.56's.

>sigh< another example of how having the money to buy and S2000 does not mean having the means (mentally and financially) to take it to the track instead of public roads.

So your saying you've never taken it above 100 on the freeway? Not trying to be antagonistic or anything, I agree that running on the freeway instead of a track is not well advised, but its kinda hypocritical; I would think would be the majority of S2k owners have taken it above 100 atleast once.

4.44s are gone......you now want the 4.56 gear set. Check out Rick's new posting on this new gear/install program.

I'll be saving up a while for mine.
