Default Gonna really wake my car up tmw

I'm finally having a set of 4.10 frpp gears installed tmw.I'm pretty stoked about it.Is there a 500 mi brake in period?This will def help to wake my car up some more.I'm hoping it runs really good afterwards.Between the 4v, and gears it should be pretty quick.Keith is like you're gonna love 'em.I can't wait to find out.

You'll love the 4.10 gears! They really change your Mustang's acceleration. You'll notice a huge difference down low and really shouldn't lose too much mileage when you're cruising on the highway.

Break-in period isn't something I'd be too worried about. If you take it easy on the gears for the first few days and let them heat cycle, you should be in good shape. You shouldn't have to worry once they've gotten hot and then sat overnight a few times. If you want to go for a few hundred miles, that's overkill, but go for it!

Hit us up when you need rear tires!

Got my gears in with no problems and they did make a sizeable difference.Need to get a speedcal as soon as I can.I'm glad I went with the 4.10's.It's so much fun to drive now.Will have to check out mpg,not that I'm worried about it though.

I have one if you like. It's brand new and ready for shipping. I happen to get a tuner as a gift right after I bought this. pm me an offer.

Ok guys I did throw it a little sideways on the way home.Not too bad but enough to learn some respect for it til I learn how to "handle" it.LOL
Yes stanger I am ready for my next mod which will be a front brake upgrade.
Crash I will def be in touch soon about the speedcal.
Keith you were right I do love them.
Feels like it has 100 more hp,wish it really did.
I'm sure you guys already know,but in 1st and 2nd gear it feels like the front end is coming off the ground.Love it
