Would this be worth it, my car isnt as fast as it should be, i can just tell by hearing the motor and how it works with the AOD, it isnt going as fast as she could be.

Would you guys recomment the swap???
What all do i need?
how much will the parts cost me??

With my mods in sig, how much quicker would the car be???

A gear change would be easier than a trans swap. I just went from 2.73's to 3.73's. The difference in acceleration and driveability is astounding.

If your doing it purely for speed, just get some gears. If you want a 'better' driving experience, go w. the 5spd.
