Well, I do not know personally but from what I hear the SN-95 computers are pretty touchy.... you would most likely have to go and get a tune done to straighten everything out.

Also, after the trickflow kit you should be looking at 300-315rwhp (including your exhaust, etc.)

Also, if you do not want to go with the kit definetly look into a shift kit/torque converter.

If you've got an AODE and you've already got gears, you MUST get a converter and a tranny cooler, that right there is only about 650-700 bucks. Do that before anything.
