Whats your exhaust plan? I know certain TA setups interfere with the exhaust setup especially when you start using the TA relocation kits.

For me I'm planning a true dual setup and had to pick a particular TA relocation kit and TA just so it wouldn't interfere with the exhaust.

i'm on stock exhaust atm but like i said ill be going to a 408 maybe around tax time and gunna run n20 too start but am going forced induction maybe next year.
that's kinda the advice i need is on the trq arm short or long i'm mainly gunna drag the car just need to drive to the track and then drive home so it will see very limited street other then highway maybe 10 miles too work on nice days and also if anyone knows what is the difference in umi's road race and regular k member roads aren't real bad around here if that makes a difference i'm going to be lightening up the car the usual stuff front supports battery relocation race brakes a/c abs delete and so on.
