as long as you are going to stay N/A 4.11's are fine than...if you go F/I that gear will be too short

Turbo's need lower ratios to help load the motor and spool the turbo but superchargers still run well with the same gears as NA motors. If you go drag racing then basically you wanna pick a ratio that puts you as close top revs over the line in 1:1 ratio gear (3rd for auto, 4th for manual) without limiter bashing.

With 4.11's I am crossing the line somewhere around 6000rpm (factory tacho lol). It's up there somewhere but not enough to light up the shift light which is set to about 6900. That's at 117mph.
