yea itll be a completely different car, IMO go with 4:10s. ull see a bigger improvement and ur gas mileage doesnt suffer that bad as compared to a 3:73. i will have 4:10s in like a week or so. i guarantee u wont be disapointed.

what gears do you have now? I have the factory 3.27s and I actually like them.

BTW your car looks exactly like mine when I bought it (I since changed the rims)

Good luck and happy modding!

If I'm not mistaken the NPI GT's had 2.73's in em to start with... I know for a fact the 99+ GT's have 3.27... but I thought the NPI were lower... maybe it was just the 94-95 stangs I'm thinking of.

Edit: In short, yeah, you'll be able to feel the difference.

4.10's will give you a bigger improvement over the 3.73's but if you plan to supercharge it you will have problems hooking up. HP is pointless if you cant put it to the ground.
