Default Help me decide

Ok, I did the search and some reading up but I'm still undecided.

Should I get the new Superchips Flashpaq? Will it be a noticable improvement?
I'm running 33's and 4.10 auto in a 4DR X

Is it worth the 330 frogskins?

IMO, nothing out there could work better than re-gearing(except for a hemi or supercharger). I'd regear, then look at getting a programmer.

I think I just need alittle bit of help...with only 33's and 4.10s, I would think the regear would be overkill

My 35's are 33 1/2inches, it's definately not overkill with 5.13's on an auto. Honestly , I don't think I wanna go over a 36in tire with the auto without having a supercharger or a hemi.

yeah........the 33s on the 2dr w/ 4:10s isn't that bad now. With the SC, it may be all I need. Got too many other things I want to put out the $$$ for the gears right now.
