Just thought I would share this information I received from Jim Marcellus (Performance Aftermarket Sales Manager for U.S. Gear):

"Keith, GREAT to hear from you, here are the part #’s and Availability Dates

01-486308 3.08 Ratio Available August 2011
01-410410 4.10 Ratio Available September 2011
01-486323 3.23 Ratio Available September 2011
01-486373 3.73 Raito Available September 2011
01-486456 4.56 Ratio Available September 2011

Pricing has not yet finalized but our material is Substantially Higher but we are going to keep the consumer right in line with ALL of our competitors."

I'm not sure what he means by "our material is Substantially Higher", but I did mention to him that the "other" current supplier of gears has had a few problems with quality and noise issues!!! BTW, he did give me permission to share this info with you guys. Now, I guess we can only wait and see if the release dates remains true. I should start searching for a U.S. Gear vendor!!!

Does anyone have any experience with U.S. Gears in the past, are they historically noisy or what? I haven't heard much about them in the Performance Market.
