Who here has a 3.06 ratio on a non-sle?

This is why he mentioned it.

We are talking a modded car, not stock. For a N/A L27 to be quick you are going to have to make the thing breath better to help with power in the upper RPM. You can't just say the power is all low RPM and just focus on that.

any comments , ideas??
