what am I missing?


Ok so Im really getting the ball going on wanting to get a s/c together. Im looking at a Vortech V-1 S-Trim, it comes with a chip but should i toss that and just get a tuner so when the install shop installs they can just tune it there as well? Also how much would the install cost roughly? I know its depending on the shop but usually theres an average.


So heres a list of what Im looking at getting-
Vortech V-1 S-Trim kit
Dual Guage pod with boost and Air/Fuel
Xcal 3 With Dyno Tune
Denso Iridium Spark Plugs (Are these worth it)


Is there anything I am missing?

you will be fine with that pump.

You might want to get a throttle body, and and upper intake elbow. You don't want to choke that vortech.

im estimating 340ish rwhp. I want to be very conservative with the tune since its my DD as well. I just want it a little zippier. Sorry I might be asking dumb questions, But i appreciate all your guys' answers.
