I have a 2001 gt 5 speed and i have A cold air intake, pro-kit and a cat back. I just got my income tax back and i have 500 to spend on mods. i have no clue what to buy next. i was thinking a shifter and a sct handheld programer. what do u think. i was also thinking about a grill delete.


thanks,
Andrew

if it's not a DD or u dont drive on freeway: 3:73's or 4:10's
If it is and you do then a mid-pipe or shifter for sure

I'm basically recommending the same thing... If it was me, I'd do MGW shifter and midpipe now and gears on the next round.

First, 4.10's period no matter if it is a DD or not. Too many people here are afraid of a gear and dont realize you can still get 22-24 mpg on the highway with a 4.10 and 4.30 gear.

Yes I have 4.10s and I got 25mpg on the highway the last time I went to Atlanta. And that was at 75 to 80 mph.
