if you read correctly i think he said cheap.
4.10's will set you back 150$
install will be around 200-500 depending on the shop
tuner will be 350$ sooooo if thats the "cheap route" be my guest!
Id say start with light mods that will slowly decrease your 1/4 mile time

How cheap is cheap? $150? $500? $1,000?

I agree with TheBusher, a set of 4.10's is about the best 'bang for the buck' mod out there. Combined with some decent tires, guys have been known to shave .5+ seconds of their E/T, and for about $400. The 'butt dyno' will show increases also

It is the best bang for your buck! Indeed. We hardly have people willing to dish out that amount of money for one mod. Teenagers that is
