Mace 25mm review

This was one of the easiest mods I've done, and probably one of the cheapest. The results are better than I expected, it delivered a very noticeable amount of torque in the lower range as described by others.

I might go as far to say that this mod has given me the most seat of the pants gain, or equal to how it felt like going from stock to my current 3.73's.

I have to agree with you a 100% there in terms of gear. my 3.91 is nothing like I had expected. Very nice more pick up down low but still I really don't know if is 50ft lb of tq feel. The 25mm insulator, long tube headers, and gears were the most noticeable change so far, but the easy installation and price of the insulator just take the cake. I think I am more bummed with gear simply because of price.

I try not to think about the gear change cost, although I would do it again...
