Most Definitely!! Thanks guys and it's running good. I ripped it on the street and thought my transmission was slipping for a minute and then I looked behind me and realized I was blowing the tires off on a 60 mph pull. Long black tire marks lol. Iac down by like 50 degrees since we changed the intercooler too! Track day coming soon!

- billet grill to hide the new intercooler that is much larger then my previous one, I had to cut my stock grill to make it fit and the billet one I'm looking at will fit
-upgrading the brakes to drill and slotted rotors
- cal tracs
- putting tracking control where the abs goes and hooking it to the holley
lol yeh you right, I'm going to track it like it is just to see what it does then my next steps will be.

Invest in some good coil overs too, I have Vikings on my current car and am pretty happy with them, great performance for the price.
I'd do as you're thinking and get it good and dialed in with the current engine/suspension setup.
Then when you do change, you'll have solid data to refer to.

Cal Tracs will be a game changer, a guy I knew did a Procharged truck with Cal Tracs/coil overs and would put sandbags in the back to help it hook on the street, it actually worked quite well.

Gotta get some in car footage and some launch footage from the track.
We need time slips too!
Really glad you stuck it out and kept going on this project, there were a few times I was expecting to see a for sale add with all the challenges you kept having.
Well done my friend.
