well I just checked, the air filter it self has the same stock part number than in the gt,,,, so ill start just with the element, and when I get some responces ill go into the tune, and I guess it would be ok, to hold my self down for a couple of months, it wouldnt be so mutch till someone comes up with the intake and stuff out the box, the only thing its that it will be costly, till all of the houses make one........
well see il keep this updated!

as far as _I know, this one has like, 2.73 gears,,,, so yeah I do understang what your talking about from 355s to 373s not worth it,,,,
but there is an upgrade for the 6cyl for 3.31 grars, ill guess ill just pull up the car and do the wheel spining against the number of turns on the drive shaft, ill get my self a point where I can see waht gears I have,,,, also take numbers on the carrier, and see if it is a 7.5 or an 8.8,,, lets wish for it to be the 8.8

oh thats wild i didnt think they would have put gears that low on there but i googled and thats general consensus. would be worth it and easy enuff to double check your gears but 3:73's would be nice.

I'd be careful with even swapping out the element. On the new motors almost everything needs a freakin' retune.

yup, i know that everything might need a tune, I got a kyn for GT 11 air element and actually did feel that pulls harder on lover rpm area, and way faster over to 7k rpms, not feeling any downside on the element

any how, I will get a vmp tune.....
