Future mods for better performace

Hey guys,

Currently running a 14 v6 with roush axel backs, bbk longtube headers, and bbk catted X pipe. I also have a X4 bama tune. Have definitely seen a big increase in performace and sound from stock but feel like I could get a little more out of my car. I'm currently running 3.31 gears. So I was thinking that could be my next mod. Any suggestions for better performace? Anything helps!! Thanks guys

I went from 3.31's to 3.73 gears. Big difference, but i don't do a lot of highway driving. At 60 mph its doing 2,000 rpm which still isn't all that bad. My last car was a 4 cylinder Dodge that did 2250 rpm at 60 mph, 100% stock. So, the only thing left for more performance is 'gears' or a 'supercharger' or 'turbo'.

Yup. I did 3.73 gears and a driveshaft at the same time. Big difference.

Yeah I'm liking the 3.73 gears idea. I think 4.10, although a lot of power off the line, will be reving too high when on freeway. Thanks for the input.

I had 3.73's put in recently as well. Certainly made a difference. After that the next thing is a blower or turbo. I went with a procharger.

Nice mods! I would suggest get 373 gears, 1 piece carbon fiber driveshaft and a CAI since i don't see you mentioned that you got one.

Gears and driveshaft are the best mods for low end acceleration and shaving that time off from 0-60.

Also look into ACCEL Super Coils and BBK Throttlebody to complete your set up!
