jeff4946, I noticed that you have the jet maf sensor and airaid tb spacer. Your honest opinion would you say those two are just a waste of money?
Did you really feel anything by installing them?

The MAF....... No! I knew it wouldn't have a gain you could feel, but running nitrous, I wanted one that would handle the task if needed. No gains. The TB space... it felt like it gave it a little better snap on the throttle. Not a big gain, but a little. I am going to end up getting a tune even though it won't be much more than just getting the speedo corrected from the gears. I'm sure if I did a full blown tune, both those would come into play, but that would advance timing, and with the nitrous I will want a retard, so it is kind of a waste. Such is life!

Ok, looks like it's been between 6-8 months for some M6 V6ers going to 3.73 gears. Any updates/thoughts, likes/dislikes.

9 mos. out with the Richmond 3.73's and no problems. Would do it again- quickly!
1st gear is quite usable, but the lower gearing greatly reduces the # of
1-2shifts needed in traffic without lugging the engine.

And when traffic opens up- seems like you're always in the right gear to GO!

Have you run a quarter mile with it yet? if so, what gear are you in at the traps?

Sorry- no 1/8th or 1/4 mile tracks (or dyno's!) for 130 miles.
Wish there were.

130 miles... that's only like 2 hours! What's the hold up? LOL
