Subscribing...I'm also in a search of the right gear for the S...I was going for the ITB but came to my senses, it'll be too much trouble when it's time to smog it!...So I'm going for gear instead!!

i ordered my supercharger the same time as my gears.. how do you like your geared sc setup? i imagine your 1st gear is useless and 2nd gear is almost useless when WOT 
how do you like the setup as is now? i see you are upgrading to 4.77's.. im glad i got them as my first choice if thats how you feel from the 4.57s
if you were curious of how the gearing affects your speed you can check out :
http://www.turnzero.com/technical_resource...gear_calculator
they have a drop down for the S2K's, and you can modify your tire diameter and your final drive gear ratio and it will re-map it out ..
here's a quick writeup to see the diff.. (this is with my tire setup in rear 255/40/17.. tire diameter of about 25")
max MPH in 4.10's / 4.57's / 4.77's per gear for AP1
1st: 43 mph / 38 mph / 37 mph
2nd: 66 mph / 59 mph / 57 mph
3rd: 91 mph / 81 mph / 78 mph
4th: 116 mph / 104 mph / 100 mph
5th: 139 mph / 125 mph / 119 mph
6th: 166 mph / 149 mph / 143 mph

I think that is wrong, and in a good way! 4.77's can go up to about 110mph in 4th i believe. (which is great for 1/4 mile guys)

i think it's pretty accurate actually, it's calculated and proven math. the guy in that video doesnt have his speedo corrected for the gears.
