some mods like this will make you faster but not literally add power. Your engine will perform the same as far as hp levels, but it will rev faster because of more leverage against the weight of the car.

a car with a 2.73 will most likely pull kinda soft on the low end of the speedo and pretty damn hard on the top when compared to a 4.10 geared car which will get off the line quicker but will probably not have as high a top speed as the car with the 2.73s

There's always a compromise. Don't get it twisted though, I know guys with 4.10s who can do 150mph easier. I bet past that the pull would slow compared to a 2.73 car, but the 4.10 car would get to about 150 faster. General rule of thumb is 4.10s for ls1 m6 and 3.73 for ls1 a4
