Default mods for the newbie

Hey guys, I'm new to the perfomance modifications game so pardon me if these are silly questions. I have a '98 Cobra droptop with A K&N, and a new X pipe and a Borla. What I think I should do next is a larger throttle body and MAF sensor, but I don't know if I would need to do anything else to upgrade fuel delivery to avoid running lean. Also I don't know if my stock gears are 3.08's or 3.22's, but I am going to upgrade to 3.55's or 3.73's. How much of a difference is there between these (in terms of RPM during highway driving)?

Dude, first and foremost... get gears... 4.30's no doubt, anything less and you wouldn't be a man
