I have searched and cannot find any information on upgrading the gear ratio. Has anyone done this? If so what did you end up going with? How much did it cost?

Thanks in advance!!

I will get the 3,9:1 final gear set. Price in europe is higher so no need comparing.

The 3,9:1 is the best setup in getting better acceleration without loosing too much top end (you will end up losing some).

How much top end will you loose? Some people say that you will loose a liitle mpg, but others say that you will not. What do you think?

You will surely lose MPG and top end speed. Not sure on actual figures.
