I am really just starting to release the hp within....I would like some help though. All I have done so far is a K&N typhoon CAI and Magnaflow magnapack catbacks. My wonderful wife is getting the gears for me for my b-day. I told her I wanted 3.73. What do you think about the gears? Is 3.73 good or should I go to 4.10 or 3.90? and what manufacture? FRPP? By the way I have the 5-speed not an auto. Now for the intake side. C&L plenum, MAF and TB but what sizes are good? I don't really understand the sizing on those so I will have to trust your input. Thanks.

RE: New mods suggestions
get 4.10 gears. Either Motive or FRPP...
Get a C&L plenum with a 75mm Accufab. I believe this was the tested best combination. If you get anyother Plenum, I think a 70mm is the best.
MAF is tough because Pro-M is out of business so I can't help there however, I can say that it's not a major restriction on a N/A car so you should probably save your money anyway. You Exhaust headers and mid pipe will be much more useful in terms of sound and speed. Other than that, you can look at alternative options such as a Bullitt Intake which would take a much larger Throttle body.

I am going to modify my keyboard, so that with one touch a response of "4.10" will post...LOL... I will leave the MAF question alone, because alot of you on here know my feeling on this. If money is no object go with Accufab, if you can settle with about 1/2HP less and spend less $$, do the C&L plenum and BBK 70 or 75mm TB.

RE: New mods suggestions
I'll probably leave the intake alone then. I will do the plenum (C&L) and TB (75MM). Will I need to use a tuner like the Diablo predator after I change out the TB and plenum? I know I will have to after the gear swap but I have not bought a tuner yet and I would like to know if I should before I get started on anything.
