Would a 5speed with 4:10's ever beat a 6speed with 3:73's?...my buddy has the same truck as i do and those are the only differences but he has a quadzilla on the 6speed and got on the internet and turned the quad up more. and i love the power his truck has..would mine beat his if i had the same chip?

all things being equal I suspect the truck with 3:73 would have more top end, and I think the trucks have a speed limiter anyway around the 110-115mile per hour mark

so he has a common rail? 373 are on cr's. if its a second gen its 4.10 or 3.55. what size of tires are you both running. how fast can you shift.
4.10 will limit top end. but also pending your tire size on both trucks will make a diff to some degree.

both are 2002 3500 c&c 2wd single cab same tires

Very simple the one with the quad box if he is any kind of a good driver/shifter.

i meant if i have the same chip as his, witch one would win...but nvm ive about talked my self outa it, i pull to much to be doing that just seems like i would tear up to much my lil diablo power puck is just fine with my lil 50 extra

Are you planning on going out and racing every day.

Everything else equal, I'd put my money on the 5 spd. One less gear to grab.

teamroper08

see thats my problem i wouldnt want to race anybody like take it to a dragstrip or line em up at a stop light but if somebody messes with me just driving buy i would probley run em..everytime.....just because i know myself and just love the sound and smoke and power of it all...thats why im doing my best to just keep telling myself that my lil 50 horse chip is just fine...

thanks for all the replys

i know i hate the way i spell things when im not paying attension my self. i really think that all the texting and writing on the internet that the younger crowd including myself does effects our spelling and grammer greatly. there has been plenty of times that i just truthfuly for got how to spell somthing and its rather embarassing

BigGreen

Well from posting quite allot I have found some people will not read your post if it sounds like a young kid wrote it. Some grammar errors are usually mad by the younger generation. But the good news is spell check would not have helped you as it was not a spelling mistake. I have been made fun of for my writing so know where you are coming from.

if your buddy can shift he will win. 6 speed gears are close together so you have to shift more yes but you dont lose as much between shifts since the gear ratios aint as wide. this is of coarse comin from a 6 speed driver with a quadzilla
