Recently had whipple stage 2 installed on my 2018 GT PP1. I have been hearing from some of the mustang community out there that I should switch from 373s( from factory) to 331s.. Is that something I should consider.. My car is a 6 speed manual( just fyi).. I need some input from you all?? How much does that coat to have done.. Retuning?? Etc.

That is a great idea. The cost will range from $500-$1000 depending on the shop. Or you can just swap out the entire housing.

You will have to use a hand tuner to correct the ratio so the speedometer is accurate

See if someone is looking for the 373. Swap the whole housing.

At your power level I would opt for the taller 331 gears if I was choosing.

Tuner doesn't work on our cars, you have to use Forscan and update the BCM. Values are listed here.

Rear Axle Ratio (XXXX = ratio in hex) Enabled BCM 0726-12-01 XXXX xxxx xxxx
Rear Axle Ratio (3.15) Enabled BCM 0726-12-01 013B xxxx xxxx
Rear Axle Ratio (3.31) Enabled BCM 0726-12-01 014B xxxx xxxx
Rear Axle Ratio (3.55) Enabled BCM 0726-12-01 0163 xxxx xxxx
Rear Axle Ratio (3.73) Enabled BCM 0726-12-01 0175 xxxx xxxx
Rear Axle Ratio (4.10) Enabled BCM 0726-12-01 019A xxxx xxxx

Manual cars do not need to update the BCM via Forscan when swapping gears. Auto cars have to.
