if its ~420+HP, ur gunna want to invest in forging your bottom end, if it isnt already done

then again i dont know how much performance can be had out of an SQ, but if its over 420, forge that bottom end

Log onto vortechsuperchargers.com and look for the install manual. It will list all the parts.

If you just got my kit for 8-900 less than me, I'll be pissed.

Good luck. You'll love it!

The kit does not come with spark plugs, you will 1-2 steps colder plugs depending on your boost. You will also need fuel injectors, mass air meter and fuel pump.

If it is a tuner kit I suggest:
1) SVT Focus Fuel Pump(plug and play)--www.modularpowerhouse.com
2) NGK spark plugs 2 ranges colder than stock--www.lightningperformance.com
3) Lightning 90 MAF---www.lightningperformance.com
4) 42# Injectors
5) SCT Xcalibrator2 with basic tune, then get it Dynotuned after install
6) Dynojet Wideband Commander AFR guage, for Safety.
