Gears! going from 2.59 to 3.45 really woke my car up. All my other mods improved the performance but the gears were the most noticable.

What tires are you using?

I just got 3.73's in the 12bolt. I had a bad set of 3.42's. I hope with the new gears to get into the 12's soon.

I'm running BFG 255/50/16 drag radials. They're almost wore out though

I don't plan to put LT's on the car for quite a while, I don't think the ET gain is worth the money unless you already have an aftermarket cam or heads. I'm glad I saved my money and bought a converter instead

I sold my '95 Trans Am (A4) before I did everything I wanted to do to it, but while I had it, by far, the best mod I did was gears. I went with an Eaton posi, and Richmond Gear 3:73's.....woke the car right up.
