as some of you may know i am planning on upgrading my stang like all of us. well i will skip the talking and get to the list

tune up: plugs, wires, cap, rotor as needed. check timing
clean injectors
switch to synthetic fluids
remove air silencer and put a new filter
performance alignment
subframe connectors
new brake lines, and new rotors on the front and switch to rotors on the back
strut tower brace?
g load brace?
switch to a 4.10 gear cause my car has an aod
trick flows heads, cam and intake package
supercharge it with a vortech supercharger pushing about 5-6 lbs of boost?
if supercharged place a nitrous spraybar in front of the intercooler.

if i supercharge it do you think i would have to upgrade my ignition and fuel system?
suggestions encouraged, remember this will be a daily driver so feel free to take anything off the list and suggest something else

fuel system upgrade is a must, bigger injectors and a fuel pump that can keep up with them

do you think i should upgrade my maf as well

That is basically what I am doing, but I am building it myself to my specs. I will be putting an 8-10 PSI p-1sc procharger that will be intercooled. (Note: I am running an R302 block) WIth the built engine, (H,C,I) you will definately need to upgrade the fuel system, and a high performance coil, like MSD or Accel. I am going with a 255lph fuel pump, and 42# injectors. With a 5-6psi vortechm I would get a 190lph fuel pump, and 30# injectors.

As for your intake system, yes I would definately upgrade your MAF and throttle body. The maf should be at least 70mm, and yout TB at least 65mm.. I have a 70mm TB and a 73MM MAF, just to give you an idea.

Your set-up seems very strong, and will produce good numbers. My car is also an everyday driver, as it sits it runs low 13's, with my new mods (the P-1SC) It will be good for 11's, and I can still cruise it to the beach when I want to. Oh how I love 5.0's..

i would go with 373 gears with the aod

i read that the aod trans should have 4.10 gears because it is an aod tranny

Please dont start this Its all opinion. If I were building a NA w/ an AOD I would go with 4.10's but if I were building a 5.0 w/ a charger w/ an AOD I would go with 3.73's. Also, fuel upgrades are a must (injectors, pump, AFPR); the ignition does not have to be upgraded but I would and it would prob be a good idea. Also, make sure that you match you combination together. For your TB I would go with a 70.. with a supercharger I probally wouldnt go any smaller than that and your MAF must be upgraded with it. Also, a stock AOD will not handle that power so you should be either looking into a performance rebuild. I would also suggest matching a nice stall to your combination. THAN you will have a nice combo

ok cool
