I have 2.73 gears right now and mostly drive in town but do some highway travel. I want to know witch gears would give me better 0-60 times. 3.08 or 3.23? Or should I just keep the 2.73. I am planning on going to he drag strip also.

I had 3.08's originally (stickshift) and the 3.42's made me happy. I was actually contemplating 3.73's but realized i don't race much.

In your question, the 3.23's will give a better time than 3.08's ..... but I'd prefer higher. But thats just me .
