Default New Turbo

Ok...I just got my Hellion Turbo in. I have an appointment down at brenspeed to have it installed and dynoed (seeing as how no one in new england can give me a warm fuzzy on technical expertise for the S197 and Turbos). I have the GT500 fuel system, an aluminum single piece drive shaft, new stage 3 clutch from SPEC and swapped out the rotating assembly a while back....am I missing ANYTHING?!? Other than new welds for my seats so I don't bust the mounts off at the line! Realistically, I know what brent says about what he can get out of the Hellion system, but what is "safe" and what is "ohcrap I lost my pucker string!"?

I guess your next weakest link is the tranny?? and possibly the rear end. I would think that somewhere in the mid 500's for HP would be a good place to be. Also,have you built the suspension yet?

Deffinitly the transmission. . . should look into a new one or build the current one. Should get a C4 trans, straight auto. Seen some preatty crazyC4 cars. Also if you cant hook the power to the ground its worthless. But good luck and go as big as you can I say 500HP maybe less, maybe more.
