Bolt ons
Hey guys I have yet another question, about bolt ons. I plan on supercharging my car but I'm the mean time what are good bolts ons that will work good for my future whipple supercharger. My car so far is a bone stock manual 2010 gt with the exception of a tuner. I appreciate all the help I can get!

I'd get lower control arms if you don't have them already, eliminates most all wheel hop. I'd also do gears, the ratio is up to you but with a whipple I'd stay at 3.73's. Don't bother with an intake, the whipple would replace it, and exhaust is up to you too. If you do headers though, get longtubes.

yeah i have springs on my list and kooks longtube headers and i was also looking at gears that will run good with the sc, are cams or pulleys worth it? i dont plan on this car being a track car just a nice street racer =]

If you are doing the whipple don't go too crazy. IMO if you have a whipple, longtubes and cams, you are very close to needing to build the motor. IIRC the rule generally is 500whp or 12psi. If you just want a street car I'd say whipple it and call it a day.

Yeah guys I plan on going with the whipple and I don have a long term goal but I was just wondering why you guys have done with your superchargers. Im going to get kooks longtube headers but idk about the cmas and yes this is just a street car. I just don't want it to blow up lol

i would wait on the cams
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.
