Beginning of a LONG road
Alright so i am on my start to a long road to hit about 500 HP
I have ordered my Xcal2 tuner from justin and it should be here soon. Also my 20's are on back order.... But now before i get to my TT i need to handle the HP. So what should i get first to start off with? |

bro...did you not see your other thread...
500hp 8.8 rear or build your 7.5 you'll need forged internals heads and a cam would also be a good idea your gonna need a new tranny to handle 500hp suspension is also a good idea why do you want 500hp? not 400 or something else...500 breaks in to different dollar amounts also you need to find someone or a site that sells twin turbo kits for the v6 |

Well I was think 450-500. Is that a good range?
Also I know what to get but what do you think I should start of with? A suspension, forged internals....??? |

if your goal moved to 400rwhp it'd be cheaper on you
no tranny and no forged internals but i'd switch your compression ratio.. which you'd have to take apart the engine anyway so you might as well get your internals forged |
