    he means, get a different ratio for your transmission to accomodate the larger tires you have

    Take a look at the tire size calculator ont he Wheels and Tires sections- It's got some gear ratio suggestions once you put in your old tire size and the new tire size.

    My guess is a 4.3 or 4.5 something I think...but I don't rightly remember. You also have to check and see what new gears will do with that e-locker.

    APR X-1 is a full on programmer that a few of the guys around have used and liked. There is an HID group buy that comes around every couple of months too...

    Best of luck!!

    I have shorty JBA headers. It is a harder install than the Doug Thorley's, but have nice mid range power but have less peak HP than the Doug Thorley.

    Damn, I thought the DT headers gave extra horsepower and power. I know they make several kinds, long tube, shortie...

    I have not dynoed, but you definitely feel it.

    Sorry, I have many pics of the engine bay, but none show of the headers.
