RE: maf sensor or gears?
i dont think it should affect gas mileage that badly, if at all. but i would say a new maf, only because of the new t/b. gears would help your car out but it is suffocating with the stock maf. just think with the new hp (even if its not much) you will be running quicker the gears would just help the lag in the trans right?

well it all depends on what you want, the higher the gear ratio the quicker the acceleration , but at the cost of a lower top speed. more accel is nice, but you need to match your gears with your driving needs, and the transmissions gear ratios. id reccommend 4.10s for your car tops. I bought the car with 3.73s in it, but i would rather have 3.55s with a 5 speed, and 3.73s for an auto.

RE: maf sensor or gears?
so would there be a big difference or a slight difference
between 3.73 and 4.10's?
i would mostly be messing around on the streets and
occasionaly on the way to and from my dads house
(60 miles on the 15 to the 10) < maybe once every 2 weeks

No its actually the higher the gear ratio (4.10 ) the quicker the accleration.
Im not sure how much of a diff youll feel , but its up to you , either 4.10s for a little more pep off the line, or 3.73s for a little less, (but still enough)
