Lol I'm sure they are but isn't that a bit extreme compared to 4.10's or 4.30's? This is the first time I've ever heard anyone recommend 4.56's and I was just wondering why he think they'd be needed.

b/c theyd be freaking awesome.

non-PI cars suck at life, so they need all the help they can get. In all honesty though I would go 4.30's if you're not super serious about going faster...4.56's if you are

4.56 DAMM! That should do it, and no to many have them. For a daily driver dont do that. Youd get like 4mpg The juice, Is the way to go if you talk about cheap. 100 shot never hurt anyone

^^^^ And here we go with that S*** again. Gears will not affect your gas milage that much, maybe 1-2 MPG if that.

Dude, I had a '98 too, but the fact of the matter is, you need a shot of nitrous to beat 99+ cars is just sad.

With bolt-ons, intake, exhaust, and 4.30's I was ahead of even most geared (3.73 and below) 99+'s.

probably off question, but how much hp do UDP add?? my friend has some and he said that he aw no power added. and he wished he would have added that 120 dollars onto something else
It's not so much the HP you will get from the UDP's but the ET........

UDP's are good for at least a .10 and as much as .20 tenths in good weather.......
