I went 4480's, cant complain, I thin kbetween them and the 4499's there isnt a hell of a lot of difference. Supposedly the 4480's have less tourque production down low, but are good in the mid to top range, but I dropped my 60's, and 660's and 660 mph at the drags with them, so I dont think they have that much of a negative bearing on the bottome end.

If I could go back in time, I would probally get difillipo's instead of my 4480 pacies.
No reason really, just hear difillipo's are the shiznay, just llike pacemaker lol.. Just depends what name sounds cooler I guess haha |

I've got 4499's in mine, and personally I didn't think it made a big difference. Just going by seat of the pants though.
