plan around 500 total

WhitePony 05-14-2006 11:29 AM

Yeah it will be about 500 dont do it for cheap...very bad idea! make sure the place you goto is specialized in tranny and gears...one of my friends had his gears installed at midas and they blow ass they are ford racing, but they whine and chatter wernt set right. if ur in socal i can reccommend a guy in El Monte. i sent by friend there and now his stang is perfect and quick as hell of the line.

roushrider81 05-14-2006 07:01 PM

if that to much under drive pulley's

MattJ 05-14-2006 07:01 PM

get gears and read the gear thread about 16 times before you ask the repeating questions that were already answered.

m0nkeh 05-14-2006 07:08 PM

wasnt gonna ask any questions...just wanted to kno the price...

TEXASPAUL 05-14-2006 08:08 PM

ud need somthing to fix ur speedo just a speed cal is bout 100 bucks i think....

spike_africa 05-14-2006 08:43 PM

get a used set of gears (can be done for 100 for less), get a SCT tune from www.vmptuning.com (there chips with 2 tunes is only $269) and then for gears is normaly arouns 150-250bucks.

or dont spend a ton of money on exhuast ( my whole setup barely cost over 300 for catback and h-pipe). and spend the rest of a tune or pulleys or something else. Me i would do the exhaust first as i hated how quiet my car was before the mac pro dumps. its up to you just giving you some options.

m0nkeh 05-15-2006 08:16 AM

yea....i want SLP1 for sure tho...

idk i could end up with more than 600, or could end up with less...depends on when these checks roll in from aunts and uncles and stuff...lol

madmatt 05-15-2006 08:20 AM

Skip the exhaust, get 4.10s. Much better gains for the money, trust me. But, I guess I should just go ahead and say enjoy the exhaust, as no one seems to listen to us when we say gears first. :)

no kidding, I didnt make near $4 grand, but you sure could and if nt, you'll still bank. Most of my family(aunt/uncles/cousins/etc) are accustomed to giving me $20 for my birthday and xmas. For graduation, they all gave me no less than $50. So depending how big your family is and how many friends you got, you could have money for gears AND exhaust.


as for which to get...depends which is more important to you. Nice sound or better performance.

madmatt 05-15-2006 09:51 AM

Yea, I got WAY more than 600 for graduation.

m0nkeh 05-15-2006 10:45 AM

so im aiming low? i did send to every aunt uncle grandma grandpa, far far away 2nd cousins and great aunts n uncles.... i forgot that they will actually send more than 25 each...lol (but i kno i wont get 4grand...lol)

maybe gears and installation isnt outta the question after all :)

but yea, def want exhaust cause i need the beastly sound :)

m0nkeh 05-15-2006 05:21 PM

well i was told i should be getting 800 instead of 600, which made me smile alittle more :)
