Gotta pay to play!! I can tell you one thing, if you're planning on making any decent power, the rear is not a place to skimp.

What's the ultimate goal for the car? Maybe you don't need all that. How often are you planning on racing and what's your power goals?


MIR huh, where do you live?

When I had full exhaust, MAF, 70mm TB, UDP's, I ran a 10.17@71mph w/my 95 AODE(about a 15.7 quarter), so you're quicker than my mostly stock car was. If you have stock gears(just skimmed your post) I do not think you're time is that bad. Personally I'd wait on the stall converter. You want one that matches well with your future cam. I through in a 2800 stall w/my stock cam.....Big mistake! The car was a complete turd. I could not even do a peel out anymore. But by throwing in a TFS-1 cam(2000-5500rpm), it matched well with the stall and the car finally was able to run great. Just my experience.....

didn't your car come with a 70mm maf from the factory?

No, stock came with a 55mm MAF and a 60mm TB. I upgraded to a 75mm MAF and a 70mm TB!

get some gear's, and ether upgrade the AOD, or put in a 5 speed.

I took a full second off my 1/4 mile just by swapping from a AOD (only mod to the AOD was a MEAN shift kit) to a T5 (5 speed.)

If you can get the 60' time down,you'll lower the ET. Those times sound right on the money with an AOD/mods listed.
