So i am thinking if i am going to spend money on getting a tune i might as well get a couple of other things too. I just want your opinion on the parts that i am thinking about getting (like yes good choice or this brand/model is better or don't waste your money on that mod and do this mod instead). Now with that being said keep in mind this is my DD so i want my car to be VERY reliable (like it is now). I only want to spend about 2k but will go up to
3k if i need to but that is the max for my budget right now. so 2k-3k

List of things that i am thinking about getting

MGW Shifter
LFP cooling Mod 2nd Gen

Billet Flow 2.8 or 2.76 upper pulley
Billet Flow 4 piece idler set
Stig Stag V port

^^^^ Or should i save up and get a Whipple along with all of the supporting mods

SCT & Tune either from Shaun AED (if i can get off on a monday), Amazon , RWTD or RET (but RET is about a 5-6 hour drive)

And if enough money some suspension do not know what i should get i just want a smoother ride not sure if i even want to go any lower with the bassani i can barely go over speed bumps at stock hight as it is.

List of my Current mods

JLT RAM AIR (painted Silver to match car :headbang: that MUST be worth 40 RWHP alone i heard silver makes your car faster LOL)
Bassani X pipe with cats & Bassani cat back
LFP Dual Pass HE
LFP Radiator
Billet Flow Brace
Billet Flow Bracket (Welded)
MM Full Length SFC (Welded)
FR500 Replica's 18x9 275x35 up front & DD 18x10.5 295x35 rear with BFG KDW in all 4 corners :headbang:
I did something else too like some bushings or something forgot what it was exactly LOL

Thanks for your input/opinions very much appreciated

everyone will most likely tell u to pass on the s/c port and go strait to the twin screw.

you could pulley it now and get a tune. if i were u i would have bob kurgan tune it. he is a site sponsor.

+1 on the Kurgan tune. And dont bother getting the port its not worth it pulley it and in a year or two throw a twin screw on it Kenne Bell or Whipple they r both great blowers.

But my advice to you is get yourself a beater once you start toying with these 11'sec mods you will go drag radial and driving that thing in the rain is a formula for disaster. You can take it from me one minute youre just fine in a straightaway doing 40mph on I-65 in a storm and the next youre in a ditch. Been there done that.

+2 Bob Krugen.......Tuned my car....it runs great. 2.76 billet flow. I had Hans from deans performance do the work. Very inexpensive and only took a couple of hours. Car puts out a lot more power, boost jumps of the guage. Do the pulley and tune, its worth it.

My blower is ported and tuned by a tuner that is not from the area. I have 2 suggestions.

1. Don't waste your money porting the blower. I am still debating if it really does much at all. The different in performance from a pullied eaton to a ported pullied eaton is not any type of bang for the buck. I suggest either getting a twin scew or just swap out the stock pulley. Forget the port.

2. Use a local tuner. There is nothing more aggravating having to deal with a tuner that lives 1500 miles away.
