$1750 + $25 for misc. items + install puts you well over $2,000 (probably closer to $2300-$2500). That's a mighty pricey mod, which is why many people tend to over look it.
I'm considering it down the road, but since I do so much hwy driving I'm not sure if it would be worth it for me.
If you only do city driving then it would be a fun mod to have for sure!

I have extensive knowledge of this mod - all of your questions should be answered in the thread below. Is your car MT or AT? It's much cheaper to get done in an MT if so.

This is what I think as a worthy investment. Lightweight rims like SSR Comp or Rays TE37, and good tires like S03's, if you'd indulge yourself, DOT R-compound tires like azenis rt615.
-less rotational mass
-improved lateral g-force
-easy cure understeer
-improved gas mileage
-better braking feedback
-better overall track time
-aesthetics
there's probably a few oher things i'm missing. Costs more than an LSD and Ring & Pinion deal, but you get more out of rims and tires, getting more than just shaving 0.5 second from your 0-60mph time. Dont get me wrong, the LSD and gear mod is a pretty sweet mod and a step up from the stock vlsd. imo, an lsd and gear mod wouldnt be my 1st mod.
but if it makes you happy, more power to you.

Bad: MPG
Bad: Excessive wear due to higher cruising engine revolutions
Bad: 2\5ths the price of a good FI system, why not save some and go FI?
Bad: another few hundred dollars to install and setup correctly.
Bad: loss of top end speed
Bad: no more warranty
Just a few to start with.

Regarding top end speed... if you're limited to roughly 155 by the ecu, or by gearing, and you lose around 10mph, you're still at 145. In my years of driving, I have never gotten my car to 145. This point is just a non-issue for the vast majority of drivers.
And no more warranty? Can you back that up? And this point applies to FI as well....
