Default 2 Quick questions

First, I was wondering what kind of performance would I see from a fastman 50mm throttle body and a K&N air filter in the stock air box?

Next, I would want to do an electric cutout at some point, where is the best location for the best noise on a mainly stock pipes except for a flowmaster super 44 muffler.

You will have better/smoother throttle response with the Fastman. If I were you, I'd save the money for know, to put towards the new gears.

Yeah... I think so. Any ideas on how dramatic the difference will be?

Gear wise? It's probably the best upgrade you can do.

I was looking at this kit a while ago. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...d=370383572681

What else would I need to get the job done, if anything?

I'm probably wrong, and some one more qualified on the subject will chime in I'm sure. But, that Ebay set will require a new carrier for the front also.

Nope. Quite correct.

Unless of course they are the "thick" version. Which is not mentioned. Go to Randy's http://www.ringpinion.com/
