i just bought a 2005 s281 supercharged and its bone stock. What mods will it take to get me to 450rwhp?The car also feels way under geared. What gears are you all running?

I woudn't buy the parts from them, or use their tune (not that it's bad, i just prefer a tune for the specific car, not one in a can).

But the parts list pretty much lets you know what you need.

I recently purchased an 05 s281sc and love the looks but felt I wanted more power. So I purchased a 550 hp upgrade from JDM and overall I'm pleased with it. The car dynoed at 460 rwhp. The tune from JDM is a good consevatve tune. If I want to make more power I could get a custom tune but Im satisfied with this one. My parts consist of a 3.2 inch pulley, gt 500 fuel pump, 39 lb injectors, jdm CAI, extreme inlet tube, colder plugs, jdm tune, Bassani catted x pipe, extreme control arms and panhard bar.
The car pulls alot harder than stock!!!!!

with 450rwhp and a 3700+ pound car, then add slicks, i'd definetely get a better clutch than that. Not that it's a bad clutch, i just don't think it's going to last with that much power, weight and traction.
I'd look into a 3+
