the trickflow kit is ****... if you wanna spend 2k and get raped, buy me a plane ticket... otherwise, get a real top end setup.

if you plan on running a good amount of nitrous, you might wanna consider higher compression. so lets start with a 58cc aluminum head.

AFR185's, RHS180's, canfield, TEA... etc.
Intake: something long runner to keep some torque in the car... TFS, Holley systemaxII, Eddy RPM2

Cam: heres where you get into trouble. Adam is running a XE270 cam (i think) on his SD system. I have an XE276hr on mine... My car was idling nice at 900 rpms even though I have SD. Its mot the cam that makes your car run good or bad, its how well you deal with all the other little issues.

regardless, with a little bit of knowledge, and some time invested in research, you can get yourself a top quality top end, minimal dollars... and excelent results
