don't forget blower cams and rear end gears. 4.10's will make that blower feel twice as strong through first and second.

Make maximum use of what you have. Cams and gears and an intercooler will allow you to get more benefit from the boost you already make and if you bump it up a little you'll be even more impressed.

If you haven't built the bottom end... now's the time to start saving for it. You'll probably need it soon.

Those guys are dopes. Inter/after coolers stay on the car all the time. Methanol kits run out of juice. Don't forget, you really need to tune the car for the cooler air which means you will need multiple tunes to cover when you use it and when you do not.

Just a thought.

check out ebay and look for an ATI intercooler. They're strictly A-A (unlike vortech's a-w-a) and they're decent units. Finding the piping will be a h00t. Have fun.
