RE: REVIEW: Full list of mods....
You really notice the difference the intake and tune make when you put the stock ones back on. I sold mine in preparation for the x-charger, and now I am stuck driving it stock until the group buy finishes. I sure do miss it!
Plus, my speedo is off by about 12% now without the tuner to adjust for the 3.73 gears!

RE: REVIEW: Full list of mods....
hmmm.....ur mods look almost like mine 
. next performance mod for me will be the aluminum DS. the smoothness and improved response got me sold. in case anyone is curious, the gears that were put in my stang were ford oem which are actually made by U.S. Gear Corporation model# E4SZ4209A. i looked it up and they provide oem gears for Ford, GM, and Chrysler.

RE: REVIEW: Full list of mods....
Nice breakdown on your mods Odyssey. You went with some good brands from what I can tell.
+2 on the C&L CAI with tunes from B.A.M.A (Doug)....all of his tunes get good reviews. X-cal 3's are really easy to use as well. ( I was afraid of messing my car up with a calibrator)
Thanks for your input and reviews.

i didnt want to start a new thread so i wanted to ask about gears in general...
exactly what effects on the car do 3.73/4.10 gears have? i've read increased torque/low end power, better launches, better hp, etc etc

why do you say the tlok would not be good for track goers? i assumed this would be necessary in higher gear aplications to get you to launch. i dont think that i would dream of getting 4.10s (if i do decide to go that route) and not also get the lsd.
is there a bad side to lsd that i am not aware of? i was going on the assumption that the only downside is it will stress the rear more than my current open rear end.

Cool mods man, and I'm really thinking about doing that FRPP dual setup, though I may just have tips put on my GT takeoffs.
Glad to hear the 3.73's are a good choice, those are what I'm going to go with, as it is my DD and I put on about 110 miles a day.
You plannin' on picking up an aluminum DS?
