At those speeds I’m cruising at like 3k. It’s not that bad especially if your exhaust doesn’t drone. The gears really wake the car up and make it feel a lot quicker off the line. I absolutely think they’re a worthwhile mod. Certainly one of the most noticeable things I’ve done to the car

Cunningham will only do it if you buy parts from them. If you already have the parts your best bet is to find another shop, if you don't then CMS is the place to go. I hear good things about Accelerated also.

these shops are telling me to not put 3.91 gears in the auto that first gear would be too short and the 3.73 gears since they are not gm do not run long and eat up and they wont install them????? damn!!!! they are recommending 3.45?? I think that's barely a change from the 3.27 gears????? worth the money to do that little of a change??? im lost

You'll have to report your experience at whichever shop you choose. It's always good to have a local installer. I can't go up to dynosteve in Ohio for all of my work.

I did my 3.91 up at RDP on a road trip. This gear upgrade will change your life.
