I was considering gears, but I believe I would go with the 3.73's I live in the city and don't wanna murder my already 17mpg because of the way I drive lol. Best I have got was 25mpg on my road trip back to georgia from arkansas.
So gears before throttle body? I've heard of the BBK throttle body screwing up alot of crap with the 05-09 stangs.

I agree with everybody in here. I would definitely recommend going with a set of Gears next. If it's stick and you do a lot of city driving then I would probably go with 3.73's as well! I went 3.73's in my 2011 GT and I have no complaints at all, it's definitely the most beneficial mod for the butt dyno that I've done thus far.
I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any questions or need some assistance in the near future.

It is possible for me to but I have never run a full tank on highway alone. I have hand calculated mileage between full tank fill ups though. Before I did my exhaust, I was getting 26-27mpg highway going to class, 45 miles one way.

I currently have the JBA cat back exhaust. It sounds good but for the exhaust sound I want it would for sure void my warranty with the off road X pipe so I'm gonna refrain from that now.....
Gears are definitely gonna be my next mod. Probably 3.73's

3.73's it is then...
So what is a fair price to have them installed at a shop? I'd prolly take it to pep boys or something. I live in augusta, ga and I'm not too sure of any of the locally owned shops around here. Alot of them have ridiculous hourly labor.
Also with this kit that I provided the link will I need anything else "options" wise for the install to make it the best possible? Is this the best kit I could buy 3.73 wise?
