Default Mod Questions

Hello everyone. Some of you have made your input on a couple other threads I started and thank you for that because its helped me make some decisions. Here is a list of what I have so far (none if it is installed yet. Will all go in at once.) and I'm looking for some recommendations as well.

Parts list so far:
Kong intake 5"
Katech 103MM TB
Katech Billet SC Snout
Maggy 2650R
Kooks headers & Mids (Haven't decided on axle back yet)

Needed recommendations:
Meth kit
Fuel upgrades
Spark plugs
Anything I might be missing.

Im on the fence for cam/heads. Its a street car and looking to make mid 800 to mid 900RWHP.

Without a cam you're going to have to rely very heavily on meth to make 850-950RWHP.

I would highly recommend adding a camshaft. That will allow you to make 850RWHP on pump gas. You won't have to rely so heavily on meth to make the 900+ that you're looking for.

You will not achieve your goal with no cam. Well the dyno might say it but it will perform like a mid 700 rwhp car. Your best bet is to work with a shop that will be tuning it and has a proven track record of doing these correctly.
