4.10's since your auto. Hell even if you're manual. I'm going to upgrade to them eventually myself. The gears and FLSFC's are going to be your best bang for the buck. It'll feel like a whole new car, and it'll improve performance.

where in florida do you live? as far as gears go, i just put in a set of 3.73's and they are nice, but i don't think 4.10's would have been too low. i bought mine used and figured i would go with whatever i got the best deal on, either 3.73 or 4.10. ended up with the 3.73's. with an auto i think i would for sure go 4.10 though. haven't noticed much of a change in mpg. just got 23mpg on a very hilly 300 mile trip.

I already got a 360, im in love with it haha. but maybe a sick tv would be nice, right now I got some dinky 20 inch with no remote, its such a pain



Jeez dude when I saw your stang thats the EXACT look I was goin for I fell in love with your hood (our stangs are almost sorta alike haha). idk what else I can get then, i know im getting a chin spoiler...maybe a nice tune up. ive had my car for almost 2 years and have never had the time or money to put it into the shop for a full tune

Dude you really don't need a custom dyno tune unless you do some serious mods, infact i would call it a waste of money. Why don't you just get an SCT or Diablo tuner? You would see the same gains from one of those tunes as you would a custom dyno tune considering the mods you've done so far. If you need a tune-up do it yourself; get some new coil wires, fuel filter, spark plugs, air filter...you can do that stuff on your own no reason to pay good money for a shop to do it...

I dont mean a dyno tune, i mean like a tune-up i should say, like you were talkin about at the end. Usually I would do it myself, but i usually dont have a garage or tools to work on it at school maybe since im home for the next week i can get my rents to loan me some cash so i could do a couple things to fix it up.
