So maybe I'll go with a smaller pulley and a better fuel pump for now.

Turn up boost, suspension, fuel pump, driveshaft, and torque converter.

Is a torque converter a pain to put in? And does it effect daily driving? Maybe a 3000 stall would be good.

DONT GET 4.10'S You are already probably eating the gears and with 4.10s your 4th gear will max out at around 115mph. Chances are supercharged you are already close to that or over that... Hmm your a manual so maybe change up to 3.55 dont try 3.73. 3.73 is like 4.10s on a manual. Anyways what are your 60 feet times?

I'm an automatic. And my 60 ft times are usually around 1.8 something.

1.8 is rather high for drag radials. have you done your suspension? Get adj. LCA, Relocation brackets and adj. panhard if you are lowered. That will improve your 60 feet times

Thanx guys. Like I said, for now I'll go from my 3.6 pulley to a 3.4 and the GT dual fuel pump. I heard the fuel pump can be a pain to change. Maybe I can find someone to do it for me. That aluminum driveshaft from spyder looks good too. Torque converter is pricey. One thing at a time I quess
I'm just looking to go a little faster, because alot of times I beat people at the track, but alot of times people are a couple tenths or so quicker too. High 11's would be awesome.
