Turboed your 3F .. not a cheap way .. but another option.
along with 4.88
Nooooo, then it would implode!!!!!

From my experience it helps to manually keep those RPMs up as high as your ass cheeks with let you. ie: Dont be afraid to shift down to 3rd or 2nd WAYYYY early. I bomb mine at 3500 all day up the mountain to keep speed.
You should try shifting into 3rd @~70mph which puts me at about 3400rpms and into 2nd @~45-50mph. (my ratios and speed/odometer are VERY close to stock) Depending on the grade and wind resistance this can help alot. At the least you will be a few miles closer to the pass before you hit 15-20mph

Since NO one else will....I will
mph x final drive x O.D / (divided by) Tire dia x 336
Alright, now some things you need to remember here is 1: you cant put a gear in the calculator you think you running, it'll be inaccurate or wrong. Like I said. I use, .10 per 1" so because you are running a theoretical gear (not the true 4:11) adjust this to work in the equation. And 2: It's an equation for an SAE, its not for a metric tire so heres the formula for that:
tread width/ 25 x aspect : x 2 + wheel dia.
265/70x16
265/ 25 = 10.6 (which incidentally is the tread width in ")
10.6 x 70% = 7.42
7.42 x 2 =14.84
14.84 + 16 = 31.84 (which incidentally is the tires height in ")
see?
Now, "what would be my top speed with 4:88's??????????? 35mph?????"
Is that a trick question?
I'm assuming you mean rpm at 35mph with 4:88's and 33's, If I am correct here goes.
33 x 4:88 x .71 = 114.33 / 33 = 3.46 x 336 = 1,164rpm at 35 mph
And since the OD is most likely not on:
33 x 4:88 = 161.04 / 33 = 4.88 x 336 = 1,639rpm at 35 mph
And since it wont be in either one of those gears (OD or 1:1< 3rd) and I don't have the proper gear ratio's I cannot tell you the answer to that
Well snap,....ask and yee shall,......but I aint doing it!, uh uhh

I've got a headache now THX!
Now take your factory settings and compare them to your theoretical gear, and look at the difference in RPM's
piece out
