No NOS or gears mods, please! Live in VA, its illegal! And really not into the whole NOS "thing". I was thinking of basically trying to get all the bolt ons as i can! Like tb/pullies/plenum/desencharger/xpipe! Those sound good to you guys?

They can't tell if the gears are done and I don't think gears are illeagal but I'm not sure. I'm doing pretty much what your doing...trying to get all the bolt-ons first then maybe a power adder later...Brothersperformance.com has the Pro-Kit on sale right now for 209.99...definetly shop around more cause you can find lower prices, like the tires...check www.discounttire.com

Be sure to shop around cause you could find a lot of that stuff cheaper. Also the gains on some stuff looks a little high...you wont get 30 from the TB/Plenum combo

Yea i know the numbers arent true! But thanks for reminding me i guess! Well since going turbo in the future, why not just keep the stock gears? Dont need gears with a turbo kit!

True...maybe some 3.55's or 3.73's. 4.10 might be too steep for a turbo.

not even! thats the beauty of a turbo! because of turbo lag, 4.10s give you the low end power that you need, untill your turbo spools and your GONE!


the reason people with superchargers get lower gears, because with the low end torque s/c's create, they cant have big gears

Stock gears are 3.27's.

4.10's are amazing especially when you match it up with a Tri-Ax.

I used to hate all them dam guys that would chime up "Nitrous". But, I have been a nitrous user for over a year now and have wrote the book on the stuff.

No matter what, get what you want. It's your car and you will no doubt change your mind over time.
