Cool Just Curious....

I have already installed my Turbonetix ST kit, Kinetix plenum, and NGK iridium plugs. Next is a set of Toyo shoes...cuz my traction sux. What performance mod should I do next? Pullies, flywheel/clutch, emanage, NX N-tercooler nitrous, etc...

I have already had a show car(the hurricane destroyed it)...and now i'm interested in pure unadulterated speed - and yes its for my daily driver. I want to make sure I'm doing the mod that gives the most bang for the buck. My friends drive various LS-1's(some blown...some stock), mustangs, and one has z06(slightly modded though NA). Surprisingly enough they are not mullets that hate imports. They are however, enthusiasts that appreciate speed. Goal - hang w/ them in the 1/4 and on the street. Not really worried about a curvy street track...more concerned about launch, straight line, and interstate driving.

+1 and get an E-manage ultimate and return fuel system and turn up the boost and get it tuned.

I thought that the stock exhaust wasnt restrictive...that it was all restricted by the plumbing leading to it? If thats the case, in your opinion, should I skip the exhaust and go straight for the clutch/flywheel?

Replace the exhaust. The exhaust might not be restrictive for N/A but for a turbo you should replace it. I would recommend at least a 3" single.

+1 No doubt. Tune for 400 rwhp. You will also need a clutch and flywheel to handle the power. You will destroy the stock clutch. It will last like a week.
