yeah CAI + Tune, I like my pullies and reccomend them, CMDP should be installed at the same time as the tune to avoid a new tune required, 4.10s would really help. Tires do the most from off the line but from a roll we need some power advantage. after those i would go electric water pump and long/short tubes and o/r pype if you like the noise... sweet sweet noise. either way im sure a hot driver with CAI + Tune in a 5 speed could show em whos the boss. I know i killed one on the highway his stock (other then K&N drop in) vrs my pullies, pypes, and shifter at the time and i raped him down low and up high

I have whipped every SRT8 Charger at the track, usually by a good 1/2 second.
Not only that but I went against a new Challenger SRT8 a couple of weeks ago, he ran a 14.01 twice !!! Gotta love a 4.6L @ (3500 lbs) vs. 6.1L @ (4200 lbs) LMAO

Black mustangs usually don't have any problems with them, all joking aside, when I had my bolt-ons I would beat them by 2 cars easy. 4.10's cai/tune, aluminum d/s. When I first got back from getting my S/C I raced one and beat him by at least 13 car lengths, the look on his face was priceless. Once he caught up to me at the next light I thought he was going to break his neck trying to figure out what just beat him.

Charge motion plate delete. The only reason I wouldn't do it is you have to pull the intake manifold off, and if mine is coming off a supercharger is going on. Oh and I say just get a CAI, tune, and nitrous, then call it a day

Perhaps this is a stupid question.

If you get a blower should you bother getting the CMPD? Does it have to come off if you get a blower, like how you have to take off your UDP if you get one?

i know for sure the saleen s/c has cmpd built into it, so you would have to take them off.
