Thanks alot guys.. I decided to do a little suspension work first. I already have upper and lower control arms. Im adding lakewood shocks and struts, subframe connecters, and new slotted rotors and ceramic brakes. Still confused about which pulley to buy to get me to 10lbs. Would a kenne bell bap be worth buying since im going up in boost? As far as the gears i changed my 4.10 to 3.73. The 4.10 where great but was to much gear for me in a 1/8 of a mile. Was having to shift to 4th gear at the end and was loosing time.

 

I completely agree with JAZZER on the easy upgrade for the brakes.
There is no such thing as brakes that are too good. Fluid, SS lines, and quality pads are practical upgrades. If you go quick, you need to be able to stop quickly.

FLSFC would be my first suggestion for other mods. They will pay off in every performance category.

Sounds like you are mostly interested in how to get to 10# of boost though. Talk to your local tuner for advice on how to get your set-up there.
GOOD LUCK!

 

im running a intercooler and im getting different answers to what pulley size to go with.. Guess i will ask my tuner.

 

Brakes. Then, suspension.

Listen to Jazzer.

 

New slotted rotors and pads are ordered. Will change fluid also.. Thanks for the help

 

So you will spend $10K plus on your motor and ZERO on your brakes? You may not have had an issue, but I think to do so is downright foolish! $350 is minimal cost for the vastly superior ability for ones brakes to hold up under intense conditions. Maybe you never experienced such conditions, but if you ever did, that $350 may easily save you an accident or a life. That life.... may be yours!

I was just saying I don't road race and it doesn't sound like this guy does either. Wether you have 225rwhp or 1000rwhp the car still weighs around 3200lbs and the stock brakes were designed to stop the car at over 100mph. If you're constantly using your brakes like in road racing(using brakes during racing lol that make me laugh) they you you want to upgrade due to the heat created.

 

op, listen to jazzer. he's a well respected member and a suspension/brakes/tires guru. upgrade your brakes, its a night and day difference which you will love

 

Got the subframe connectore welded on yesterday.. I suggest that upgrade to everybody. Made the car alot more stable.
