i picked up a half second when i did the same gear swap, granted mine was as AOD at the time about the topic at hand, i wouldnt be afraid of the 3.73's with the turbos because turbos need rpm's to build boost so the 3.73's will bring it up faster and shouldnt be as bad on traction as say a eaton style blower that builds boost in low rpm's hope this is of some help ------------------ 88 Notch, B&M Ripper, 3.73's, Ported E7's, Explorer int. w/ ported lower, pulleys, 1.7RR's, BBK headers, off-road H-pipe, flowmasters, subframes, 65mm TB, March ram air ,MSD coil, U/L control arms, 155lph f/p, Crane Adj.FPR, Nitto drag radials, best 1/4--> 13.76@101.4 on a 2.17 60ft |
