Default SC readiness?

Well I most likely will supercharge the mustang in the next few month (hopefully). I was just wondering what mods need to be done in order to be prepared for the extra power.

Depends...you could do nothing or you could do many things....GT500 pumps, rear suspension components, new twin disk clutch, brake upgrades, and cooling upgrades. Looks like you have most now and are ready to up the HP.....forge the motor? (not sure what your looking for) and which S/C do you want? What are your plans for the car?

Do rear suspension at the least, UCA, LCA's, Panhard.

LCA at a minimum. If you get hop after that then UCA.

Good tires if you don't already have them.

I wouldn't fix anything that doesn't need fixing yet.

Cool, looks like I am all set for the most part

This car will definitely be sleeping this winter by the time I get done...
