Non supercharger related mods should be basically suspension and exhaust. Dont make the mistakes i made. Once you get a S/C you should try to first get the best available tune. Push it to its limits with out pushing the limits on the internals. Have a good suspension set up to hook for the best quarter times. I would also invest in a clutch upgrade. And last but not least, make it breath. Dont restrict that exhaust.

After all of that, start saving for a forged block because you will not be satisfied. Everyone knows boost is addictive.

Oh i almost forgot. Unless you are a mechanic, work with someone that has installed a s/c before. Learn to do everything yourself. You will have to change belts and make adjustments. When they told me that labor would be about a thousand bucks for the install, i quckly found someone to help me put it on. Then you can just cruise to a qualified tuner because the tuner kit is crap. I wish i could have got my car down to MPH.

Good luck to all getting a s/c. I would like to see some KB/s on this forum. No dragging your ass next year.

KB 1.7 hopefully by summertime. if commission at work keeps going as well as it is now (which it should, i've got people booked up until march!) then it should be no problem. install will be free, my BF and his dad will help, both of which have put s/cs on their trucks. and as far as a tune, Thunder Auto will tune it as soon as it's on. YAY! :)

Talking about rearends sounds sooo gay.

As soon as i finish my suspension, i will be working on the rear. So far, i have MM lca's, Steeda upper and 3:73 gears. I am debating on a Auburn Pro differential and 31 splines. i know you have rebuilt your rear and was wondering what do you suggests.
