4.81 are dumptruck gears - the only vehicles I've ever seen with that type of gearing are trucks for pulling or trucks/jeeps with large tires.

It'll get you a good 0-60 time, get you out of the corners on the track ... but not help FE that much.
Ha yeah. This thing gets 0-60 in 6.9 seconds. Fast no doubt. lol Due to the close gear ratio, it actually goes into third gear around 53 mph at full throttle.
