in answer to the dealership question, the guy is a moron. there is no power loss. and if there was why would people on here buy gears. secondly, i was at a dealership called autoquest (just looking around) and i was sitting in a Carrera GT (no im not lying) and im like how fast is this in the 1/4 mile (to the car salesman) and hes like "oh well it cant be very long probably about only 4-5 seconds. then before i could stop my self i sarcastically said "man thats as fast as a top fuel dragster!" so yeah salesmen are idiots.

well not 100% correct there. They've dynoed gears on a gt to lose 5-10rwhp for 3.73s and 4.10s
so im assuming on a v6, ud lose bout 2-3rwhp with 3.73s and maybe 5 with 4.10s. Also adding a posi unit can also lose probably 1rwhp.
