When i switched from 3.42 to 4.10 all I had was a CAI,Catack, and tune. I was .4 tenths quicker in the 1/4. Of course this was after the tune with adjustments. Also this was on a open diff. both times. The Eaton hadnt arrived and I was anxious so I just put the gears in to go to the track. The most noticable was away from the track though. They were fun on the street. Im actually debating on 4.56 for my current setup and probably need them but 4.10's will do for most. One of my favorite mods!
