speed and gear ratio

[d3solate]

does anyone know what (if possible) i wil need to do to change my speed with my gear ratio. so if i were to focus on acceleration 0-60 i would mean more force on the first gears or top speed where my speed (mph) increases per gear switch than normal. i heard it had to do with the drivetrain so that why i am asking here rather than the newbie section . i just plan to see what i should focus on (most likey top speed , sorry alll you draggers)

Sorry, but there is not a whole lot you can do. It is not easy like RWD where you can just change the rear dif. Changing your final drive ratio will involve a bit of inside tranny work with pieces that are not readily available: they will more than likely have to be custom made. If by some change TRE or shep can make different shafts/gears they will be expensive. Hope this is somewhat of a help.

From shep racing.com:

# Gvr4 1st gear and input shaft - $225.00


I want to say that gear is a different ratio than stock?

*edit*

I was looking at transmission rebuilds myself in case it turns out I need a new one. I'm almost hoping I do..haha.
