RE: Next Mod
please dont turn this into a gear argument thread lol. some people just stand by the premise...4.10s or bust. if i did the appropriate suspension mods my car probably would be faster with 4.10s...but i think i will probably stick with 3.73s. i must confess...since im gonna be pushing probably well over 350 rwhp...i fear the gear.
what other suspension mods can i do for traction? control arms, full length sub frame connectors, drag radials...what else?

thats a lot of money. i know there are people here who dont have a lot of tracton issues but at the same time have not had to shell out the money for that kind of suspension work.

Well, there is a lot. Look on some of the sponsor sites under suspension and you will get a good idea. Your best bet would be a full 5 link rear suspension set-up which would allow you to adjust every aspect of the car. But that will probably run you a good hunk of change.

RE: Next Mod
yea i thought about 3.90s. and no...my kit was used. i was going to wait a while for a supercharger...i just got it now cuz i got a great deal on the kit. if i was going to get a new kit though...i would probably get the Vortech Mongoose kit from MPH.

RE: Next Mod
The headers and mid pipe are gonna make the most out of your blower and get it flowing a lot more air through your engine. Its unreal how restrictive your stock gt exhaust manifold is. You're probably gonna need that clutch too for all that power your going to make. Get long tube headers too!!! its the only way to go! Either way you need to get a 75 mm throttle body & upper intake and 85+ mm MAF for that blower. . .

RE: Next Mod
Headers, mid pipe and a new clutch hands down. Me personally I would get the clutch installed before the lt's cuz its a biotch to change the clutch with lt's. Get your spec stage 2, and install your vortech. Then get some drag radials, traction wont be horrendous. Aren't you only going to run like 8psi??
