    Should I be worried about "weak" different gears?

    So I'm talking to this guy at a shop about getting my gears switched out and I tell him I want to go 4.56s. He says he won't do it because with that gear ratio there are only one and a half teeth contacting the pinion at any one given time. Which makes it weak and very likely to grenade itself...

    2001 0-60 times?

    I just picked up this tuner from American muscle... it tracks your 0-60 times as well. After I did my run, got my time. I looked up normal 2001 cobra 0-60 times. 4.7 second 0-60 stock? Does that sounds right? That's nowhere near what I got... 8.17 second. kinda concerned.

    Tuners. Are they worth it?

    I have basic bolt ons. Cai, catback exhaust, No gears. Would a tuner really make that big of a difference for me or are they more for more advanced mods. Iv hurd very mixed reviews. Some people make them out to be amazing and a huge difference. Some say they didnt do anything. Sct Bama Diabo ?

From there I took the valve covers off and replaced the spark plug...
