Very excited
I just ordered a 5/16 plenum spacer from EverythingG35. I spoke with Joe and he was very helpfull. I should also be getting my 3.9 final gears on Friday...I can't wait the weekend is so far away. These are my first mods.
Re: Very excited (poms302)
sweet... you already have an intake right??
Joe is the man... I never deal with anyone else.

Congrats!!!
The gears limiting your top speed and further killing your MPG doesn't bother you at all?
I love speed and torque at the strip, but I couldn't live without the top speed and at least 16 MPG

Re: Very excited (Sentientbydesign)
I did some research on the top speed and it was still above the limiter. 5th gear is 132mph redline, it would be a hair more with an 05+. As far as mpg, I'll let you know how bad it gets I'm currently at 22-23mpg. I did this in my other car (3.27 to a 3.73) and barley noticed.
Re: Very excited (G_whizz)
Yes I do already have an intake, I think it is a pop chager. It was in there when I bought the car.

Re: Very excited (poms302)
Cool!! Will be curious to know how the gears turn out.(Also, was the 3.27 to 3.73 worth it?? I currently have a car with 3.27 )poms302 wrote:I did some research on the top speed and it was still above the limiter. 5th gear is 132mph redline, it would be a hair more with an 05+.

Re: Very excited (SVTCOBRA)
I replaced and upgraded every go-fast part on that car, only the GT-40x aluminum heads(65hp) were better than the gears. It will put a on your face, thats for sure. Also the gears for the Mustang and install was around $450.

Re: Very excited (poms302)
Interesting. Beancooker did some research and heard a completely different story.
Keep us posted.

Re: Very excited (Sentientbydesign)
Im curious of the gears aswell. But i saw somewhere that they only worked on the Manual. Is that true?
Re: Very excited (TeflonG35)
Teflon- You can have 3.3xx final gear ratio. You can step up to a 3.54, but to go 3.9 or higher you need to swap you pumpkin or your rear axel not sure which. I'll have a spare 3.54 when its out and I'm happy with the 3.9's. Let me know.
Re: Very excited (poms302)
You are making me happy in the pants ^_^How hard is it to swap? What do you think the shops would charge to swap?
Re: Very excited (TeflonG35)
You can't do it yourself if you had to ask. I got quoted $350, but I have seen prices at $240 from a tuner. So it's somewhere in between.
