How good are 4.10s in rain because right now my tires just don't hook up, I am going like 10 mph when it rains with stock gears and I know people asked this but is the gas mileage really bad with 4.10s.

Okay it sounds like it will feel a little better, that's what I was really hoping for
. I was actually supposed to get 4.10's this past Friday but between the car battery dying and some other stuff I am going to have to wait a little longer.[&o]

You won't feel much of a difference. All the restriction is in your exhaust rather than your intake.
I did nothing for intake mods on my 02 GT and still ran sub 14's with just exhaust and gears. IMO, it's a waste of money if you are on a budget.

You'll feel a bigger gain from the exhaust work.

I just got my tuner for my 02 Auto GT. It will wake your car up that's for sure, especially if you have an auto. I get sideways all the way through first gear and when it shifts to second. Haven't been fast enough to shift into 3rd yet. (Just got the tuner a few days ago, and I haven't ran it up to 80 yet.) Best bang for my buck yet. My research shows most stangs see 15 hp gain with the timing all the way up.

not to mention that sense of pride that comes from starting a Mustang with aftermarket exhaust
