And YES you do feel more pull as compared to stock. 1st gear isnt as bad as you think it will be, it wont act like a granny gear. My fuel mileage dropped in town but on highway i get 27 mpg. Hope that helps.
hmm, i bought my car used, but i have no reason to believe (only mod when i got it was flowmaster mufflers, not even an aftermarket pipe) that i have different gears (door tag says 3.27)... i never checked by jacking up the rear end, but im at 2200rpm almost exactly at exactly 70mph... im at about 2500rpm at 80mph...
