dont waste your money on cats
3.9 diff gears for the manual or auto will get the car into the flat 13 high 12 sec mark

Metal cats made a big difference for me. But if i had a choice between them or a 3.9 diff, well id go the diff forsure. But done properly will cost 1400ish. look at the enhanced automotive section. money well spent though. The vy ss 6spd should have 3.45:1 ratio from factory?

if its 346 ratio then id sell it and buy another one as the 346 ratio diffs are worth around 700 and you could buy a cheapie like the one i have and that would cover the rebuild
