suspension...set of drag radials/slicks. subframe connectors, upper/lower rear control arms, lowering springs, adjustable shocks. suspension and traction is a HUGE piece in the 1/4 puzzle.

So just suspension mods?

?

well you've already gotten your engine setup, and exhaust. Now you have to properly plant that power to the ground. What transmission do you have? 5speed or auto? but ya, a good suspension setup, drag radials, and take any unneeded wieght off the car and you'll hit your 12's

 

[beaver2489]

nevermind the tranny thing, I see you have a centerforce clutch. I also noticed you have stock headers...get new headers!

 

[samuraichamploo]

how much of a difference would headers make?

 

[ECU5.0]

with a set up like that they would make nice top end power....and yes get suspension work done. you will regret it if you dont and go to the track and cant hook up for crap

 

[fiveohGT]

yes you SHOULD get suspension done first....but i dont have money for that

 

[samuraichamploo]

What suspension mods?
and BTW what RWHP do you think that combos pushing?
I only ask because it hasnt been ran yet.

 

[samuraichamploo]

What susp mods in particular? and what HP should i be putting down>?

 

[dastang2]

well you could box in your stock rear control arms and put some aftermarket bushings in them or just get aftermarket control arms. also get a set of subframe connectors, remove the front antiroll bar and stock quadshocks if you have aftermarket control arms. get some good shocks like monroe sensitracs or something.

i also see that you have the triangle edelbrock air filter. is that the one that is nothing but filter and the filter is foam. if so get rid of it fast. i had one and my motor sucked a big hole through it and it burns easily when the engine backfires. it's not pretty. all that foam getting into the carb and engine.
