Would help to know if and what you have over stock now. Kirban FPR and guage is only $100 tops, if your stock the ignition stuff won't help alot unless your current stuff is on it's way out. And unless your only getting rear tires, I don't see you buy a set of 4 for $300. Answer the first question and you will get some good answers.

Nope, best mod for 300 bones is going to be a set of 3.73 gears.

I agree, 3.73's if you do limited long distance driving. I would recomend 3.55's if your commute involves more than 15 miles one way on the highway.

I drive four hours one way on a regular basis to see the inlaws with my 3.73's and no discomfort, and have a 20 mile one way highway commute everyday. Guess it's all what's important to you. I like them better on the highway than around town, even in 5th I'm still close enough to my powerband to get around easy. Oh- and 15-20 mpg, and that's going WOT at least once every time I drive it.
