Yes.


And if you take it to someone for an install should be no more than $400 in labor. I paid $300 for mine.

What part of NC do you call home? If you are close to Charlotte, Pro-Dyno is a great shop. They put the 3.73's in my GT, great work.

I'm right on the coast. About 5 to 6 hours from Charlotte. Had the gears installed Saturday evening/night. The roaring is worse than it was prior to the install. Taking it back this weekend and hopefully get it fixed. Haven't driven the car more than 8 miles since the install.
