TB and Plenum OR 3.73 FFRP? Both are going on eventually, but which first? How hard is the Accufab TB and C&L Plenum to put on? What kind of REAL gains am I looking at, I've seen numbers from 5hp to 20hp?

gotta go with the gears. 3.73 are great. for about the same price, gears got to be the top choice if you really want to notice a difference. good luck

A TB/plenum combo you can install yourself in less than 30 minutes.

Definately gears. Consider 4.10s if you dont see a blower in the near future.

Look at the dyno results on modulardepot.com. You wont see 20hp. Youll see less than 10rwhp.

3.73's definately.. get that break in period out of the way, refill the rear diff with some new fluid, then put in the intake mods and let her rip.

I paid 175 shipped for the gears, 245 for the install.. then about 45 for new fluid to be put in after 500 miles had passed.

I'd say go w/ 3.73's. Great all around ratio especially if you think you might add a power adder sometime down the road.

4.10's give room for a power adder as well, go 4.10's

If you fear the gear, you WILL regret it later

If you like working on your car... Go with the plenum and T/B just for the fun of messing around with the car. If not.. Go with gears.

Go gears first - most bang for the buck. I like the 3.73 better than the 4.10, but the difference is nominal - if in doubt, split the difference and go with 3.90s. Plenum and TB chg are easy...and will compliment the steeper gears.
