Good buy. I personally like 3.73s over 4.10s, but I do a little highway driving here and there. I have driven a 4.10 setup before and didn't care for it too much, but I think it was pretty much stock. No get up and go on the highway, but off the line was pretty nice.

The speed cal will work just fine if you don't want to drop the money on a tuner. If you plan on getting a tuner later it seems like a little bit of a waste money wise, but I hear where you're coming from on not spending too much money until she's paid off.

I'm not entirely sure on this, but if you do get a tuner later I think you can turn around and sell the speed cal since you can do the same thing with a tuner. I don't think the speed cal locks down to one car like a tuner, but you can always revert it back to stock and load the tune from the tuner and sell it.

That'll work for you then. Minimizing cost and still geting the correct calibration for 3.73s. I'd do the same thing to same some change if I was in your shoes. Let me know how you like the gears after install. The good old buttometer should let you know you got some more pickup off the line.

I haven't been out in a long time. Which Kmart are you talking about. I know they used to do BassPro, but that got shutdown thanks to the ricers, yet again. And Walmart got shutdown, because of stupid ricers. Last I knew Home Depot was the meeting spot. Like I said it's been a while since I've been out.

Hmm...well, if I'm still here when it warms up and I still have the Bullitt I'll have to take a trip up there. I have an assignment, so I won't be around too much longer.

I'm out of Petersburg close to the track. I got a Diablo and really fellt a difference in the performance of my ride. No Dyno yet want to get my exhaust and gears before I dyno. Don't let the tuner off the table because I felt SOTP performance and it will do your gears. Check this out for $259 has everything you need but the speedo.

Less than $30 more you can have the speed cal, too.

The other kit doesn't have that.

If you are having someone install it they will already have the install kit and usually it's already included in the install price.

What about the Royal Purpel? at $15 each that is another $60 not $30.
