When your ready to order 3.73's, order drag radials at the same time...

Sure it would help, so will the nitrous, if and when you get it. But all this will be in vain, if you can't hook. No hook=no throw you back in your seat feeling.

Then yes, 3.73's will definitely out-accelerate 2.73's . Also, since you're planning on running nitrous, the 3.73's will give the car longer legs in 3rd gear vs. if you ran with something like 4.10's.

Do the gear change with a converter and you'll be driving a whole different car.
