o/r x pipe. but seriously, thats a cobra...not a bolt-on GT. You need all the gear you can get right now.

true.. but it being my DD its really my best option? I obviously dont know for sure but i feel like it will kill my top end and gas mileage, is it real rough on top end speed?

3.73's have their place in higher hp blower cars and 3.55's and lower have their place on turbo cars. 3.90's at least for an n/a car...especially bolt-on gt's.
