hey bro i know this is gonna be a real dumb question but how much was the difference once you did the gear upgrade people tell me its the best mod for the money
Putting gears in helps your car accelerate faster, it does cut down on top speed and make the engine RPM up higher on the highway. But adding the gears has really woken up the car, pulls pretty good especially in the higher rpm's. It is a pretty cheap mod for extra performance.
@mustang9807 for your gears, did you stay with your 7.5 or go to a 8.8 rear diff? i put the 8.8 with 4.10s on mine and im currently running mid to low 12s best is a 12.29 in the 1/4 mile
@ADD8oi I stayed with the 7.5. I did some research and people have had them hold up to between 300 to 400 horse at the wheels. I don't think I'll ever make that much so it was a little cheaper to build up the 7.5. I use the car mostly for car shows.
how much did it cost to do the gears ?
