Well it all depends on what you want out of the car.
For 10's your looking at suspension as well as drive-train and then you need at least a 6 point. Do you want a cage in your street car?

You've got a healthy enough budget so we really need to look at your vision of your car. For high power levels you'll need a rear-end as well and clutch. Then you'll need stepped up suspension parts to handle all the power. Do you want to stay n/a and have bragging rights or go with a power add? Turbo , s/c, multi stage n2o setup.. few choices there as well. I'll pm with you with some more information.

great combo, but we would go with a carb for more power.
