Which one should i get????
 
"350.00 is the amount of money i have" ok i know that i have 4.10 gears & t-lok on my sig that says coming soon but i dont know if i want to get them yet since my stang is an everyday driver. We still dont have a second car yet. n i at least fill up twice a week. So here we go!!! ok i will have enough money buy the gears n t-lok but wont have enough money to get them installed. Maybe about 1 month later after i get the gear n t-lok i could have them installed(But like i said we still dont have a 2nd car yet. Should i wait until we get a second car to put the gears n t-lok in my stang). Also if not the gears n t-lok then should i get LT Headers. It will be the same thing as the gears n t-lok. I will have to wait like about a month after i get them, to have them installed. The good thing is that the LT Headers will not waste that much gas as the gears. Another thing is that should i just buy sum show items like a shorty antenna, the 232 emblems etc.....

SO HERE ARE MY OPTION....

1. 4.10 gears n t-lock: order them and wait until we get our second car(which will be????? dont know, lol)

2. LT Headers: order them n wait about a month to get them installed(cuz of money)

3. Or just buy sum show items....

Im really wanting the LT headers for right now....

i could get them already but i wont have them installed until we get our second car. :(

3.8LMustang 05-08-2008 07:45 AM

i would get them installed if they didnt waste that much gas on the freeway or in the city

spike_africa 05-08-2008 08:16 AM

Then maybe gears arent for you. Wait till you have another car. You dont want to be carless if something happens or the install takes forever. Trust me.

3.8LMustang 05-08-2008 08:19 AM

Then don't use the freeway. Take an alternate city route. If that ain't possible, take advantage of your OD and keep your speed down.

dude, i think you have to do a lot more research then what it appears you are doing...

first of, there are no gains with our motor to getting LT headers because our short tubes are not restrictive, and with LT headers, you are going to need a new midpipe (unless you want to just weld to headers to the stock one, which is just pointless).

like i've told you in another thread, wait until you find a GT rear and yo'll be a lot happier. trust me.

if you are really dead set on the gears and t-lock, but also concerned on mpg, why don't you get 3.73s? plenty of pep and easier on the gas milage.

btw, what do you have, auto or manual?

If you are worried about gas mileage you bought the wrong car.
