You are, of course, discussing these gears in an AT. If they are in a MT, you will get different results, because the MT can force the car to run longer in the meat of the powerband (assuming, of course, track conditions and a driver who wants to run hard.)

Any thoughts on the differences in a MT?

An mt is all driver related. I ran a 14.8 with my 4.11 5mt but Jesse ran a 14.7 with both his 3.54 5mt and his 3.90 6mt and phastsvx(phil) has run a 14.5 w/ his 4.115mt. Like I said it is all driver related and of course what kind of pwoer your engine has. I personally feel the 3.54 5mt is optimal. It has good acceleration and better gas mileage. I like my 4.11 because it is perfect for the kind of driving I do. It all depends on the person and what they want

Correct. This discussion is purely related to 4EAT SVXs with either 4.11 or 4.44 gearing. This discussion arose as the gear ratios are different in the two transmissions:

4.11: 1st 2.785, 2nd 1.545, 3rd 1.000, 4th 0.694

4.44: 1st 3.027, 2nd 1.619, 3rd 1.000, 4th 0.694

Basically, 4.44's have lower gearing and lower gear ratios for the first two gears.

-Chike

P.S. As I've said earlier in this thread, from having owned both a 4.11 and now a 4.44 4EAT, I'd say the 4.44 4EAT is probably 0.2 seconds quicker than a 4.11 in the 1/4. I really notice no difference in acceleration when in 3rd gear in either trans (4.44 shifts into third at 67mph, 4.11 shifts into 3rd at 76mph).

I realize the ultimate MT results are all driver, but there is certainly still a difference. Otherwise, why would drag racers care what gears they used??
