is that all your mods?? you should have got 4.10's.. try a shift kit.. if thats all you have for mods get somemore bolt on's and then get a good dyno tune..

mustangmanic · September 25th, 2007, 12:28 AM

+1 on 4.10's. The TQ is incredible above 3.73's and 3.27's. Even with a stock stang with 4.10's will walk on another with stock gears w/ an intake, exhaust, UDP's, TB and Plenum. its night and day!

but you can get alot more TQ and HP from a tuner. Get an Xcal 2. They offer amazing tunes for auto GT's. You'll most def feel the difference in shifting and TQ with a good tune.

4.10s, a shift kit, a tuner and a H pipe will get you serious torque gains, but the tune is the most important component. Whit all that extra torque you better up your suspention to handle it. It doesn't do much good it you can't get it to the ground. It'll just spin the tires.

no i have many mods i have a shift kit, X pipe, UDP intake, 3.73, shorty headers, the only thing i dont have is a programer what do you think about the SCT livewire programer?

04GTAMPA · September 25th, 2007, 09:51 AM

X pipe will give you more torque low end. H will open up higher top. For an auto, 4.10's have proven to equal 3.73 on STD tranny. I would check into other things that add power instead of spending money on gears again and still carry the same power. Get a tune. I'm not a handheld person, so I would say get all your parts, install them and then get a dyno tune from a good tuner.

Tampa that's backwards. An X pipe flows better than a H pipe giving you higher top end. A H pipe creates more back pressure giving more low end torque.

Nitrous adds Gobs of TQ.

jivepepper · September 25th, 2007, 01:19 PM

because it makes power in the lower rpms

blue03mach1 · September 25th, 2007, 01:25 PM

i have 3 73 gears in the bullitt will 4 10s make a difference? im sure it will but i heard it will drop my top end... will it?

HMUSN · September 25th, 2007, 01:26 PM

4:10's will make a slight diff. since you already have 3:73's.

and no it won't drop your top end.

you can hit 180mph with 4:10's.

04GTAMPA · September 25th, 2007, 01:39 PM

You just need a lot of power for that...
