The stock clutch will need to be upgraded. Also, you can get by for a while on the stock rear end, i know you dont want to upgrade it but its going to be one of the weakest links in the system now.

Any other questions, just ask!

On street tires your stock rear might be ok for awhile....but 500hp on street tires is kinda worthless unless your doing over 50mph.

You say you don't want to do anything to the drivetrain but hopefully you have taken into account to at least upgrade the fuel system. This is a must with FI. Another must is a good tune with a wideband. NGK TR-6 plugs are recommended. If you decide not to do these upgrades and take your chances, I wish you luck because your new found power will be very shortlived.

Here is our installed ATI ProCharger D-1SC price.

Here is a list of items I recommend.

The ATI ProCharger P-1SC complete kit will supply you with the ProCharger kit, plus the injectors, fuel pump and a tune. On top of this I would add subframe connectors. Give me a call for a great price on the ATI ProCharger kit at 260 244-4808. Bob
