Read this. This tells you in the first paragraph what and why. Then is nice enough to tell you how. Not bad.

i have a d.i.d. 520 x-ring chain vortex +3 and -1 in front, i love the new gearing and i do alot of freeway driving. I dont mind the higher RPM because i did a final drive swap on my car too and i love the extra power you get while in high gear. Only downfall is you will top out at a lower speed.
