If I ran mine on the track sure I would hit 10a but I dont. But I do know mine is damn quick with my mods. All of which you listed are in some way on each car you listed.

Yes but I didn't want to make that a focal point you know what I mean...there are guys like Hulk that are damn close to 10's but the stars didn't align but his car is fast.

This is what I'm talking about follow the list and you will fly. I don't have Alan's Bassn07's list or I would've posted it. I duplicated his setup with the only difference being that he had Floor Fabbed Headers, Remntech's Carbon fiber intake and a ASP 180mm crankshaft pulley. I believe the parts from Alan's car are also on the list from above and yes he ran 10.7

How about just "sort of" fast.
I've already got MBH LT's and the Quiafe.

I was going to do PLM H.E., ASP 174mm pulley, and a tune.
Is that safe enough without having to get into injectors, bigger coolant tanks, fuel rails, etc...

Thanks!

If I were you I would go EC heat exchanger, separate the cooling and go with the tank that fits where the air cabin filter sits and top it off with any pulley between 168-172 (anything bigger and you will have to upgrade your tb to 82mm)with a really good tune (road tune preferred) and call it a day.

I like this idea. I followed amgrockets list though I thought a converter was part of his setup too?

Seems like 650 HP is the limit for bolt ons with stock supercharger.

Until someone releases some aggressive cams and or adjustable cam gears, that would be nice.

I'm not sure of Steve's (E55Rocket) power level but I would think that with his ported heads, surge tanks and runners have to put him in that 675hp range

Yea, not exactly what we would normally call a bolt on. But, yea it bolts on right LoL ;-) . Without a bigger set of cams, higher flow numbers will help a little but. you won't get the big results until you increase lift and duration of your valves.

I'm still lurking . The best dyno I had was 619rwhp but found out my intake was killing me on the track so I ran it with no filters. I think that was good for another 20 on the dyno. The car is sitting in the garage with no motor still. Business blew up in 2013 and we just finished building a house so I was pretty busy. Chris (Sir-Boost-A-lot) has the engine. Guess Ill send him a text and finally get the ball rolling again . I bought a new Shelby to keep me going until then. Haven't took it to the track yet but pretty sure I'll run well into the 10's the first time out and in the 9's after that. They're so easy to go fast.

all right. I have no idea what I am doing but here is what I have done so far. any pointers would be appreciated:
1. installed the belt wrap kit
2. installing the PLM Heat Exchanger
3. Installing the Bosch 010 pump
4. installed the hurricane scoops

What next? should I upgrade the SC pulley next? or should I do 82MM TB and upgrade the CAI?

Thanks guys - this is fun.

Depends on your goal.....I created this thread so people can duplicate what WORKS. Pick a setup and copy it.

So that would put you in the 700hp+ (Crank) range
