Default What do you think about these mods?

I have pretty much decided that I am going the n/a route. I was wondering what you thought about these mods.

TRANS-GO SHIFT KIT
TRANNY COOLER
TCI SSF3500
ASP PULLEY
P&P THROTTLE BODY
HOOKER HEADERS AND Y-PIPE
TSP 231/237 CAM KIT
TR BRAKING PACKAGE

Way down the road I am going to

True Duals
Mosler 9"
SII heads

What do you think that my gains on this would be? Should I get anything else?

Sounds like a good line of mods to me. Should be good for mid to low 11s. Goodluck

Some DR's if you dont allready have em. What size gear do you plan on running in the 9"? That should help you on your choice of vertors (Unless you want to change that out again later as well) Other than that your choices sound great.

I have the DR's now. The 9" is so far down the road right now that I will probably go 4.10 and a higher stall then. But for now I will stick to my 3.23 gears.

Yes you do have to grind a little on the K-member. But for the price its nothing to complain about. But if you have the money to spend the Jet-Hots or Hookers are fine. I love my Pacesetters.

For 30 dollars difference I would rather not grind anything!

Grinding on the K-Member is crap. Just save up a little more and you will be really satisfied with the Jet Hots and you won't be grinding at all.
