yo thanks for the output fellas but uh where can i buy a TCI 3000 TC and cooler for you say 450-500$ ill look into it myself as soon as i get some time.. but a suggestion would be much help.
Also they wern't kidding, ive read a lot of the posts and people have been complaining about noise and say they've only gained .1 or .2 of a second from upgrading to a 373. not to mention bad on highways and a drop in gas milage. i dunno but thank you

if you want a faster pick up :quicker launch: change ya gears go 3.7s performance of the mark will change very much to your liking. If your worried about fuel, sorry suggest you buy 4 cly rice.apologies for swearing.
If gears are noisy they,ve been installed wrong or are badly worn.
