I have enough money to do my next mod. What do you all think I should do first.

Intercooler, piping, pulley, belt, & dyno to check A/F = $570

Wideband-can't decide between wideband commander or FAST. With the fast I can replay on screen but the WC I need to buy a laptop to play back. Would really like this to get the most out of my tune and not have to go to the dyno everytime I do a mod. $350 for the FAST, allot more for WC and laptop.

8.8 build - 33 spline axels, spool, diff cover, install kit =$800 would have to save a little bit to do this one.

I was thinking the intercooler would protect my motor and give me more hp and I want to run at the drap stip next season. I am running ET streets right now and am planning to do a couple track sessions this year. Do you think my rearend will hold up. I thought if I launched at 2000 and then massed the throttle after I get going it might hold up?? Then I thought maybe I should do the wideband fist to make sure my a/f is good all the time so I don't have to go to the dyno anymore. But I do have MPH tune so I'm sure its Awesome. I think this is just more a toy than anything. What do you all think? Sorry so long.

THanks for the help.

I would do the IC or better yet just save up for a forged short block. The rear end would hurt either with those MTs. Those are the three things I would look into. I think short block would be the best, you never know when the engine can go.
