All I have right now is magnaflow comp axlebacks, bbk tb, and afraid cai. I just ordered sx4 bamatuner.. so next is the gears.. but Idk which gears.. it is a daily driver and I deliver for jimmy John's durning the day 4 days a week for atleast 3hrs a day.. I really thinking on the 3.73 but Idk any input would be greatly helpful please!

 

If most of your driving is in town, 3.73's should be fine. If you do a lot of highway driving i would go with 3.31's or 3.55 gears. Just my opinion

 

Do you have automatic or manual?

 

I have a manual trans with the factory upgrade 3.31 gear...it's worlds better than the 2.73 stock gear but I feel it could have a little more bite. With the manual trans I think the 3.55 would be great - I do a bit of highway driving and I think the shorter gear is worth the trade off.

If you're running an automatic trans I suggest a 3.73.

 

It sounds like you have a pretty good mod list so far! Post up some pictures of your Sixxer. We would love to check it out!

Delivering for Jimmy John's is really cool! The customers are going to need their orders quickly so I would definitely get a pretty aggressive gear in there, haha.

It sounds like you're on the right track, though. I would recommend going with the Ford Racing 3.73 Gears. That is the best option for the amount of driving you'll be doing. It won't kill your gas mileage but will still give you the extra push you're after! I run 3.73's in my 2011 GT and love them.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions or need some assistance.

OP, listen to Dan he will not steer you wrong. I have a automatic and had installed 3:73 gears and love them. The off line acceleration is great now and far superior to my previous factory 2:73 gears.

 

It's a auto. And how much is labor usually all I can find is people trying to charge 400-500 just for labor.. do u think that is high or not

 

That's a bit high for my area but I guess every state and area is different. I paid just under $ 300 for my gear install and live in the state of Maryland.

 

Yea I live in garland tx and was wondering if anyone lives there or close by and knows of a good price as well

 

So what do u guys think of this setup? Magnaflow comp exhaust, bama tunes, ariad cai, bbk tb, bbk shorty headers, 3.73 gears, and accel coils. How much rwhp u think I'll be putting down?

 

I'm guessing 280 rwhp.

 

I'd guess 300. Give or take 5 either way

 

I would say not 295-300 rwhp and that's based on my mods and Dyno numbers. My bama tune Dyno at 294 rwhp and my mods are the following:

91 bama hybrid tune
Airraid CAI
BBK long tube headers
BBK off road x pipe.
3:73 gears
One piece aluminum driveshaft.

 

I really want to be atleast hitting 300.. do they make a new intake for are v6s yet?

 

Idk I also have a td and the coils so that's a better spark and more fuel and exhaust so it's letting more air out

 

Also want to get a one piece

 

What do u guys thinks better ford raceing 3.73 gears or motive performance 3.73 gears

 

Anyone there lol

 

I have Ford racing gears and they work perfect so I vote you buy Ford racing gears

 

Yea I found a differential shop who will do it for 325 ^^ cheapest I can find
