Agreed computer switching is useless until you have enough mods for it. I usually get the wheels first for a little of looks, then Exhaust, then gears. Then I decide from there. Good Luck!

MSD is good.

I would look into some subframes or torque box reinforcements. Then 4.10's.

gears then definately do subframes before you add any more power.
