I was wondering if i would notice the diffrence when they go in. i only have an exhaust throttle body, and maf sensor. I am getting headers, intake manifold, fuel rails, fuel injectors, and alot of suspension work. WIll the 3.73 be good for this setup.

YES,you will notice a difference.
If you currently have the 3.23s'(GU5),you will be increasing your torque to the carrier(and axles) by 15%.
If you currently have the 2.73s'(GU2),you will be increasing your torque to the carrier(and axles) by 37%.
