Default Mod plan for the year!

Ok well i'm gettin closer and closer to my goal (a mid-high 12 second n/a 2 valve that's a dd) This year i plan to near my goal or reach it here i what i have planned for this year:
MGW shifter (gettin it in a month)
Steeda UDP's (X-mas)
JLT CAI (Sometime in the spring)
MM Lower control arms (spring)
VT Stage II Cams w/ new springs (Late summer 07)
I think that should get me to my goal of high 12's. If not on go LT's and maybe slicks. If that don' do it heads and weight reduction. If that doesn't do it f*ck my plan i'll spray my bullitt. I really wanna stay n/a and i think my goal can be reached with those mods. What do you guys think? All dates are subject to change. I don't wanna do Lt's if i don't have to. I prolly will but i'll deal with that mod if my plan above doesn't do it for me. WOOT for the n/a daily driven bullitt!

you might want to put a built rear end in there if you run slicks.

You don't need cams to have a mid/high 12 sec n/a car.....

if you plan on doing cams, just wait to do heads with it right off the bat.
Id go with VT or mph 2.5 heads.

im pretty sure if you run skinnies and slicks you will be in the 12's. you just have to build the rear end and get some drag suspension parts. that will be the fastest and cheapest way for a 12 second car.

5.4L swap and done. mid 12's on 87 octane.

Sorry had to do it. Seriously though if that's your goal (12's) then a 5.4 swap will deliver it on cheap gas thanks to maddening torque numbers. Check out my sticky in the 4.6 tech section if you're interested/have questions. We're always looking for new joiners to the super stroker club.
