wait until you do the short block, you will have more than enough power with the SC alone on the stock short block.
when you do the short block, then do the cams and heads at the same time.
you could do a CAI, then sell it when you get the SC.
if you already have 3.55 gears, you may want to keep those. going to 3.73 from 3.55 isn't much of a change.


rims and tires are a good upgrade to go with FI.
you'll need more rubber to get good traction.

agreed...

Suspension and tires! They will make the car more enjoyable to drive now (more traction!) and they will become an absolute necessity with the torque that the whipple will make.

This control arm kit is a good start:

I'd start off with CAI and gears just as you would if staying NA.

And YES save some cash for gauges.
I saw this mentioned and cannot stress the importance of gauges on an aftermarket
supercharger setup. DON'T go without a wideband AF gauge or fuel and oil pressure gauges.
Gauges are pricey yes but you NEED them. They can save your ***... and your engine lol!
