Default so what's next?

well, my gears are being installed soon, and I put in my CAI/tune saturday afternoon, and my exhaust is going on this weekend. so what's next? I know I eventually want to end up with a Saleen supercharger. Here's what I'm thinking:

suspension overhaul (springs, struts, shocks, adj. panhard bar, panhard brace, UCA/LCA) - anything else I'm missing?

spyder shaft w/ loops

forged rotating assembly

that's about all I can think of before the supercharger. can you guys think of anything else I might be missing?

You will need better brakes when you up the horsepower! But other than that, it sounds like you got it all covered.

I am assuming that you already have wider/stickier tires. If not, you will need those too!

UberHaxOr, do you have a manual tranny (can't tell from your sig), if so get a short shifter (Hurst,etc.)
