gt40 heads, strim, 14 psi, fuel upgrades, suspension front and rear, 3.73 or 4.10s not really a big difference just depends on what your spinning through the traps. and slicks hell you could run a 10

Alright now we are talking, questions...whats strim? When you say fuel upgrades you mean injectors and pump?

Turbos I donno about turbos...would a supercharger be easier on the pocket book and on the street?

thanks!

A s trim is a votech supercharger, you can find the head units pretty cheap now a days. Fuel upgrade would be a 190 or 255 gph pump and then the right injectors I run 42s but you could get away with 36s. really a turbo or a supercharger is easy to run on the street the turbo is gonna give you more power and throw you back more but the blower IMO is a better choice for a street car cus you get instant power even though turbo lag is not a real issue anymore it does take more piping and things since you have to run a inter-cooler with a turbo you dont have to with a supercharger (i dont). Theres less piping for a super charger and its a basic install really since there are a ton of kits. I pieced mine together with a used head unit(i sent it to get rebuilt) for around 1800 dollars that was everything i needed for the install besides the injectors which were 400.
