I reckon that depends on what you want your car to do different ......

How do you use your car and is it manual or auto?

More bottom end .. if NA, in addition to FD upgrade i'd look also into Crawford BPBs. They move main torque/powerband in lower rpm-s ..

Here's my thread on FD swaps, I used the 4.56 FD swap from weir performance and I believe it's less expensive than the mfactory. The main thing is to find a reputable shop to do it for you honestly

I've had 3 different final drive setups in my car. 2 rules that I follow are:
1 Only let a qualified shop do the install, it's not for the beginner mechanic don't skimp on this or you will have a noisy or short lived diff.
2 Use a quality fluid in your diff.
The only 2 shops I trust to setup my diff are Spencer Fabrication in NH and Weir performance in CA I have had flawless work done from both companies. Both offer the same parts and options. DO THE UPGRADES IF YOU DRIVE HARD!!!!!


A 4:56 ratio would be the way to go with a manual daily driver

My assumption was that you needed a M98 or M85 diff to swap in the correct gears turns out you dont need to do that anymore?
