v-10 programer for a stick, and gears

i have a 2004 xl v-10 with a 6 speed i am having trouble finding a tuner for it and i was also wondering how 4:10s would help or hurt vs the stock 3:73 because i have a chance to get 4:10s cheap and also will a 4 inch exhaust help or hurt i just strait piped mine for now but its a really crumby weld job any help would be great

The stock 3" exhaust pipe is fine. The stock y-pipe is the restriction point. A 4" exhaust is way too large for the V10 and will do more harm than good so don't bother. Get in touch with Mike at 5-star www.5startuning.com he will get you hooked up with a tuner. As for the gears the 4.10s will be better than 3.73s by far, 4.30 gears would be even better especially if you are running larger than stock tires. What size tires do you run?
