Default *** Gear Upgrade $1295 ***

Have your gears installed now by ECS and you have plenty of summer left to use them.

ECS does not believe in 1 gear fits all drivers so let ECS help you decide on 3.73s, 3.90s, 4.10s or maybe no change at all. Their guidance will be based on your driving style, your current and future rwhp and their vast customer base which is always providing feedback.

ECS gear upgrades are done in house and in the same day. Come in the morning and leave in the afternoon with your new gears. Watch as your rear is dropped and the new gears go in your rear (not some rear that you have no idea where it has been or what it has gone through).

The price for upgrading your 3.42s to Cryo treated 3.73s, 3.90s or 4.10s is $1295.00 installed (this also includes new axle seals). If you want more protection then add the Hardened Output Shaft for an additional $295.00. Just think, you can come in the morning and leave in the afternoon with new gears and hardened output shaft for under $1600.00.

And if you need even more protection then have the DTE Transmission Brace installed while you are there for an additional $449.00.

To get this pricing the work has to be done in house.

Send me a PM or email me at ECSRacing@ecsracing.com if you want to know more or schedule an appointment.

Thanks

Bob

Have to wait for winter with cash in hand. For some silly reason, my wife would rather drop 8K on a 1week vacation in the Carribean.

1 week of fun versus week in and week out of adrenaline rush - where are your priorities

I am VERY interested! What a great price too.

Thanks for the post WW, I want to talk but first I wanted to take a few runs at Englishtown (which is where I plan on being this Saturday!) so to have a baseline of where I'm at right now with my OEM rear.

**** the credit cards If money was made to be held on to it would have had handles!

2:72's to 3:73s - let me think about this

If you have an a4 we would suggest going with 3.42s. You will get a new z06 carrier with the 3.42s in it. We will also change your gear shift program to mach th new gears. The price of that is $1495 installed.

Come on Bob Sir. You cant be serious. Multiple Gearing for different customers??? NO WAY. According to the "OTHER" Tuner in your area, 4.10s are for EVERYONE. NO IFs , ANDs or BUTs.
Need a new Gas Tank......he suggests 4.10s. Need a Key Relearn... He suggests 4.10s. Got a Migraine and your Nose is runny....he says he can "CURE" it with 4.10s.

So, Bob Sir. What do you say to that????????????????????????

Umm you mean to say 4.10's aren't accceptable for road courses??? What would you recommend for a combination of road courses and autocross events? Is there a happy medium?
