Can't go wrong with a TTiX. Makes over 700rwhp on my bone stock LS6, and plenty more available with forged parts. Putting it to the ground is another story. You'll want to include RPM transmissions for help in that department.

Sounds like you should do a lot of reading before buying anything, or take it to a good shop.

good luck finding a clutch and trans to happily hold all of that power......and there's no way you're going to like 4.10's even with 3.42s the gears go by very fast, you won't have much of a chance of hooking up just on boost, with the nitrous no way, especially if it isn't progressive.

having had 700 and 800 rwhp 6 speed cars.....plan on replacing your driveline regularly...

realistically people seem to be having better luck with the T6060 swaps than either a M12 or MN6.....I've used M12's in all of my cars....

for gears 3.42 or lower....any more and you'll constantly be blowing the tires off and the gears will wind up so short you'll be shifting too often vs. putting power to the ground. In a quarter mile sense, 3.42's are pretty much ideal, lets you get to around 150 or so with a 6500ish limiter.

its just not easy keeping a driveline together behind all of that power for a long period of time....800 rwhp sounds like a great idea until you're constantly putting it back together its also absolutely useless (well maybe until 3rd or 4th gear depending on road surface/outside temps) unless you have drag radials on or better.

I can lowerr my boost any time I want..its called using my right foot.

Im still on my stock drivetrain after 15K miles of blower abuse (65K total on car) cept for a Monster stage 3 clutch and I bang gears all the time (I do not launch hard often but nail it frequently once out of the hole so probably why its still together).
