What should I do next
I was set on finishing the bolt ons orignally but lately I've been leaning a different way....
I read Jazzers suspension write up and I want to do some some suspension now.
plan:
upr spherical adjustable LCA
baseline suspension Pro-Launch #1 UCA
weld in these MMFLSFC I have sitting here
K member w/ coil kit (not sure on brand yet)
I would be getting these done slowly, not all at once rememeber I'm not made of money, lol.
Here is the kicker, I was looking of that 1500 supercharging kit sticky a little while ago and I also want a vortech too, lol.
That and some nice cams would be pretty sweet...
plan 2:
cms stage 2 w/ springs
vortech w/ intercooler at 6 or 8 psi (pi swapped remember)
and then the original plan 3:
CB
accufab Plenum
H&R SS springs
repaint front bumper (or cobra bumper?)
more visual things? (wheels + tires)
I don't know which plan I should really do. I want to hook and handle, but I want some power to beat some of the LS1 guys in town... but I want my stang looking nice too
What would you guys do with my mods listed in my sig????

You sound like me, wanting to do so much to your car but don't have enough money to do them all at once lol
It sounds like you just want to go fast in a straight line more then anything, so I would go with plan 2. But if you do I would look at the blower cams he has (Jim as CMS).

Thanks guys for the responses! I was leaning towards F/I more so go before show
I've been looking into the eaton M112 to 2v swap vs a vortech
http://shop.torktech.com/99-04gtsupe...ablower-1.aspx
I would use a used m112 there is one currently for 500 dollars with 12k on it o ebay. I'd only need fuel and maf upgrades and Id be set.
I've been looking around a bit and the roots seems to have more torque then a centri style. However I would need a new hood.... So I'm not really sure what to do.
I'm leaning a bit toward the roots even though its a more expensive route. I'd prob skip cams if i was doing roots because it costs more.
What would you guys do?

why anyone would spend money to swap an eaton onto their engine is beyond me.....
please dont...
especailly since that kit is 2 grand, plus the blower, and supporting mods...youre gonna have 3 grand into it and be running a ****ty blower

Yes, please do not go Eaton on your car! Go piece yourself a $1500-$2000 vortech kit with a slightly used s-trim. You can easily make 400rwhp with just a few mods on your stock shortblock and be happy. You will end up spending more money and not have near the potential and eventually take the eaton off for something else anyway down the road. The s-trim with the right setup can make 600rwhp.

seems like alot of people are advising me from the m112, maybe i should go with a vortech. The parts are only 750 ish for brackets and what not, head unit is prob about a grand, 450 for fuel and maf so about 2200 realistically. that would only cover the m112 kit without S/C, hood, I/C, fuel & MAF. It might be nice to have extra money left over to buy a wideband sensor which is key to tuning
