I had an 89 automatic formula and blew out the rear end one winter in the snow. I replaced it with a 3.73 rear and wow. Huge difference. That car had overdrive so it wasn't that bad. Plus gas prices were much cheaper back in the early 90's. I had a wimpy 305 with throttle bottle injected and that car was a rocket ship off the line. I could smoke them forever. Putting in a 3.91 is to much I think. At 70 on the highway your going to be drinking fuel. If you buy the 3.91 gears does the dealer recalibrate the speedometer or your mph reads accurately ? I have to ask... My firebird was always off.
I have the L99 and still in the process of breaking on my SS. I am going to be really disappointed if I can't "light them up " on my car after 1500 miles. I have 200 miles to go before I find out what this car really has. |

Anyone telling you that you need to throw aftermarket parts or tunes on your car is ignoring the underlying issue. It'd be like putting in a cut-out to bypass a clogged converter.
As for SLP parts they are owned by Roush. |

My local dealer said SLP parts would be the only aftermarket parts i could put on my ca without voided my warranty because they are made specifically for GM or Some B.S. like that... The dealer did tell me there is a issue with clogged injectors on these models.. He is a friend os mine and only told me because we are friends, other wise the dealership wouldn't say shit... smh.. |

just to let all know who gave me info i had the car looked at up and down they said nothing was wrong .. i had the TB cleaned because it was dirty and i also had the injectors cleaned because of the clogging issue thats on file with them... the dealer said that the car had a few misfires on record and i already had done a tune up and they said that fixed the problem.. i took it to a "EMPTY LOT" like usual and took my turns with the nannies off and i burned some tires i also went from a stand still to a sharp right turn and punched it and did a couple donuts.. so there is power their.. I'm assuming the AFM system is causing the car to not burn tires when i slam the gas on just a straight take off. I also am getting the Vmax ported TB and i am putting in yukon ring and pinion rears 3.73.. The dealer said that the warranty would be voided on just the rear if it goes.. And the shop is giving me 6 months on the rear.. charged me 500 for the ring and pinions and 600 for the install.. 1,100 not bad... so after this i should be getting what i want.. I'm also going to get hi flo cats and the new flo master exhaust system thats out.. maybe headers.. don't want to make it too obvious to the dealer that i have so many mods done... I have a CAI already installed so anything else you would recommend?? Tb spacer??? i already mentioned headers... lmi.. thanks...

TB spacer is a gimmick
