You're gonna love it. The added horsepower is a great feeling. Really adds to the enjoyment factor of the car. Better start looking for some good tires...you're gonna go through a few getting used to driving with the supercharger!

getting the car mini tubbed at the same time, going with polished ccw 505a's 18" or 19x13" rims on back for 345's going with 285's most likely upfront. Chris from ECS is going to talk to John at CCW in the next day or two to figure out the best combo for my car (very helpful group at ECS). also getting hardened output shaft and diff. brace, Textralia clutch, (red)Wilwood big brake kit, Hotchkis sway bars and c6 ZO6 shocks....don't want rollbar but I am looking for a removable hardtop locally, might like to track it a few times and see what it does
