REAR GEARS! i got 3.73 in mind and they make all the difference! those gears will give your car better feel... also youwon't lose any topspeed cause your 5th gear will be more drawn out ... you may lose mpg in town but highway more than likely not. your speedo will be off also..

K&N are good improvements also.

just my 2 cents though

Patrick Boetticher · 08-16-2001, 12:55 AM

my buddie has 3.73 and the damn thing cant get traction (his drivg thought) 3.55 seem to be the best bet right in the middle... i know i know i need a k&N... prob a world of a diffence... i sold it in a pinch so i could get the valve covers so the roller rockers would clear.. the night before the new motor was started (not in sig)....
i wanna do all those things i mentuion need help though

Patrick Boetticher · 08-16-2001, 11:18 AM

Im lookin at your combo, and a 65mm throttle body with probably a Vortech 73mm Maf would be a good combo and be the best price.

3.73's make traction tough on the street unless you got some good tires. Trust me I know

. You can't go too wrong either way the 3.73's or the 3.55's.

If you have a 155+ pump you'll be fine.

I would go for a custom chip, or get an older computer, A9L or A9S or something, as those 94/95's aren't very good from what I hear. Saleen and Cobra aren't anything.

It says you have 24lbers in your sig already. But as of now, I would just save the money and stick with the 19's, adjusting your fuel pressure up as needed.

Everything else looks good!

yeah i know the sig says 24. had 24s sold em need $$$ for motor...

yeah you got a point about the gears/tires he's got pretty cheap ones and there only 245s. i got nittos 285s so id probly benifit from 373..

ok 155gph didnt know where to start..thx

the computers im my years absolutly suck... im probly going for a cobra comp w/a custom chip..., 24 injectors and a new mass... the one thats is in there is a 75mm... it came/the car dunno whats up /that though...
dont want to mess w/ the older computer swap herd it wasnt just a swap cuz the pins are differnt and some of the sensors are different... if its a plug and play thing ill do it...
well thanks for the help!!! any more opinions would help alot....

SKY: i thought i heard of bottle blown racing... they are right around the building form where i used to work and where my car is being painted at!!! KOSMIC KUSTOMS (formely DOYON DESIGNS)

Yep, they are right there in Camarillo.
I would skip that Cobra computer. Its worse than the GT computer. I would go with a custom chip setup for the computer you have.

The 24lb injectors probably arent really all thaat necessary. Your 19's should hold up fine with that FPR. If you have a MAF, you can recalibrate it for any injectors if you deicede to get different injectors later.

If my car was to be a car I took on the freeway everyday I'd get 3.55's. But mine only gets there occasionally so 3.73s are fine..
