yes, when you see 3.7 it’s just an easier way of saying 3.692 (which is the actual size of the gear)... my cruise control is fine... I've seen people report that they lose CC with 3.9 and 4.0 - apparently (according to DaveB in his post above) early models lose cc... I don’t know how true this is as I haven’t personally seen anyone lose cc with 3.692.

neither HFC nor Test Pipes are legal... they both help exhaust flow better... test pipes will yield more gains but with a few drawbacks - smelly exhaust (sometimes even in the car) and loud & obtrusive... HFC are a little gruntier than stock - but no smell (at least with my car).

There is a bunch of info out here about hfc and test pipes... search around and all you need to know is there.

It won't work if you have the CC on and then exceed ~70mph. And when you exceed 70mph with the CC engaged, it won't reengage until you restart the car.
I haven’t seen any reports that anyone loses cc with 3.692 - but I suppose its possible?... I researched the hell out of FD before I went with them so It's not likely you've seen reports that I haven't.

All I can report on is my car (04.5) - and cc is absolutely fine at all speeds (we've been over this before).
