8.8 questions

[rdharper02]

I'm thinking of keeping my 8.8 and am tryining to solicit ideas on a solid combination that will hold around 500 horses. I need to know what you guys have had luck with. I'm talking axles, traction lock, gears, c-clip eliminators and control arms. As far as gearing , my car will eventually be wearing an hp turbo kit (when it arrives) and will have the stock t-5 (untill I rebuild it or replace it). Give me some info before I blow my cash.

weld axle tubes
31spline carrier and axles
good diff cover for the bearings
solid control arms "adjustable"

weld the tourqueboxes first or the rear end will be laying on the ground. An 8.8 will hold 500 easy
