Default 4.57 Final Drive - What do I really need?

What do I need to buy???

That's my question.
My goals are 4.57 final gear, and as much of a rock-solid diff as I can get.
Future plans include a supercharger, so the diff needs to be strong.
Do I need the "unbreakable" diff, no. But I'd prefer it.

Some people talk about the Comptech housing, others the MY06 diff...

What do I need just to get 4.57 gear ratio? Just the final gear?

Thanks.

Hardtopguy.com is your answer.

Comptech reinforced diff, 4.57 final drive and a yellow box to recalibrate your speedo.

You'll have to think again... 4.57r are not available anymore.

4.56's are though.

You're right spitfire. It's 4.56

Just spoke with Hardtopguy on the phone. Cool guy.
I think I'm going to Comptech reinforced diff route.
Probably real soon
