Default Getting 3.73's installed!!

So tomorrow (or later on today), I'm getting my 3.73 gears finally installed!! What can I expect? Is it a drastic improvment or a subtle difference? Thanks

Expect a bigger difference than any of your other mods have made.

A blower would be drastic.....a CIA is subtle. Gears are somewhere in the middle with a bend towards subtle. But you won't be dissappointed.

Yeaaaaa man!! These things are pretty sweet. All my past mustangs already had gears so I didn't realize the difference it made.

I had my 3.73s installed two months ago but have not driven it yet.

I had 3.73's in the GT and 4.10's in the cobra. Best bang for the buck.
