Full exhaust with headers or Gears?

Gears for biggest difference. However, exhaust can bring many smiles to the face. I would go with the less drastic exhaust first. That might be all you want louder stang with a little more power.

Will the gears 3.73. make my gas mileage worse?

Most def they will, i do alot of highway driving, and I HATE my gear it's too much rpm on the highway it limits where i basicly can go, because i live in texas places to a little trip to go to. i hate 3 g's at 85. when i take out my diff im puttin in some 3.27's
These gas prices will bring more of us out 86white. I'm also swapping out 3.73's for a set of 3.2's.

I'm most curious how much the car will slow down in the quarter.
