Help with my next mod!
i have a 2001 SS A4. I already have longtubes, ORY, TSP rumbler catback, and a lid. only have about $225 to spend since money's tight right now and was wondering if i should buy a sub-frame connector or a FTRA. Heard great things about both just wanting others opinions because i can't make up my mind. or if you have another idea throw it out there.

of what's listed the subframes are a pretty good. but factor in that you need to get the weld in's and actually have someone weld those up for you.
but i really agree with Teke. just save up for something bigger and better. Id get the stall, I have a Yank ss3500 in my garage right now that's begging to go in, but its gotta wait on H&C to get here

the reason i like the bolt ins originally is because i can bolt them in first then later down the road i could weld them in. Would gears be a good idea for a stock A4 transmition? i want to get 3:73's but not really sure what to get. I've heard to stay away from gears til i upgrade to a 12 bolt since the stock 10 bolts suck.

Since your not going for a track car, I'd say just get a ported stock TB(a couple of members do it on here, just look around, maybe do a search) and a LS6 intake should be all you need(depending on year of your car, 01+ came stock with a LS6 intake)
As for starting a new thread, go into a forum you want to post in. Look 3-4 inches below the red camaro at the top and there is a blue "New Thread" button... then go to town

i think when you hear the "dont pour money into your ten bolt" saying, its not so much gears, more at getting a posi or just building it up in general, getting gears for a ten bolt is fine i think, still your ten bolt will break, but most of us have to make a little more than bolt-on power before we start to worry about that

gears are ALWAYS a good upgrade. they will really wake up an auto trans car.
gears are intrinsically weaker due to smaller teeth, but as with anything on these cars...some guys get 1000s of HARD miles on thier rears...others blow them in days.
assuming you can maintain traction, gears alone could give you a .2 or .3 sec advantage in the 1/4mi.
same with a stall...

if i buy a set of 3:73's would all i need is a ring and pinion set? this is the one i was looking at http://www.ws6project.com/user_stor/...4d260febfbb564. Is that all i would need to buy then just take it to my local shop or is there more to it?

link takes you to a sign-in page...not a products page.
should just need the ring/pinion, gasket, and fluid. wouldn't be a bad idea to install a stud kit and girdle to beef up the rear.
but that's increasing the cost.
