Nitrous, supercharger... anything else is almost pointless if you're really looking to go fast. Possibly gears, but i absolutely hate the gearing of 4.10's.

Exactly what it says... i hate how they drive. The shift points even gas mileage... not that I really care cause i'm dumping a very rich tune on this engine when the s/c goes on... however its nothing but negatives for me. Its also not comforting that my car dies at 110 mph. Not that I plan on going over that much ever other than the track.. but still.

I think that's english... not sure, however answering what question i think you posed: Just cause you can go 135 doesnt mean you're going to do it faster than I will. If we race from 100 to 135 i would smoke your *** every time if you have 4.10's.

there are no cheap mods. HP is expensive. 450 hp car, your looking at atleast 12k, unless you bought a terminator.

What no way?? 450 all motor maybe. I should be about 450 motor after i get this thing on. Bought that for 2.5k about 1k for the exhaust and clutch. A block to handle 800 hp would only be another 3k, 800 bucks for a d1 head unit and i'm looking at 520rwhp.
