same supporting mods associated with any FI, fuel system upgrades, tires,

some will tell you to go turbo, more power, less money, but you can make up your own mind

Boosta-pump if it doesn't come with the kit. I would also get a 255lph pump. You'll probably need some BFG drag radials too

I have pretty much the same setup you have except i have gt40p's that cam is going to love the kenne bell

I would get the one that mates to the gt40 lower rather than the one that goes on the stock lower...

your probably going to need bigger injectors..ive also seen them on ebay with a blow off valve deal and some without it I think it would be safer with that blow off valve system so you dont over boost when you let off the gas.

I dont have a kenne bell but this cam loves nitrous and the kenne bell should do almost the same thing I would have held out and bought alum heads and a steeda #19 I dont think you fox guys have the idle problems we sn95 owners do.

have you ran your car at the track yet what does it run?
