I was debateing now that i should just buy an intake instead of gears, because soon i need to replace the clutch so i might just hold off for gears until then so they dont charge me a more in labor, what intake should i get.

Gears now. the tranny and the rear end are completely different. the only part that is the same that they are going to do in both installs is the driveshaft. Get the Gears now, and then the clutch.

Gears is in your diff. Clutch is in your transmission. You won't save any money.
