Default What would lower E.T more?

Some suspension mods or 3.73 gears? I do plan on getting both but what would help more earlier? Also, what are the best suspension mods to get first?

Suspension. No idea what you have today, but you need to have 4 corner adjustable shocks; SFC; after market TQ Arm; LCA; for a start. Later add drag rear sway bar (or by the way get rid of the front sway bar for at least track use) and relocation brackets.

Also agree on good tires. Than gears. Why 3.73?

I picked 3.73 becuase that is the most common auto gear ratio. Plus, teh car is a DD and the tuner I had suggested that, if I didn't care to much about gas mileage.( He orginally said 3.42).
Are MT really that much better than Nittos?

Never have owned a set of Nittos, just know that M/T are reputed to be better. We'll see hopefully this summer
