Nice ride and welcome! I also a have the same diffuser and trunk lip spoiler. I would switch out that 74mm fixed pulley for a 76mm clutched pulley. Here's the link: http://vrpspeed.com/index.php?route=...product_id=143
Clutched pulleys don't make the supercharger rattle loud like the fixed pulley. They also consumes less fuel so you will have better mpg and cause less stress on the factory fuel pumps. The fixed pulley needs quite a bit more fuel than the factory style clutched pulley. Also less heat will be generated since it wont be spinning the blower the whole time like the fixed. Less heat less timing pull and loss of power. Depending on your elevation I wouldn't go smaller than a 76mm supercharger pulley with mid length headers. If you had long tubes you would achieve more flow. Mid length still give a decent gain and flow for the price they sell. If you're closer to sea level you'll have better air and will see more boost. If you live at say 2000ft you may see around a 2-4psi less boost than someone at sea level. I live at 2200ft and when I go to the beach at sea level I gain around 3-4 psi depending how cold the weather is.
For the intake, you do lose power with that style air intake. I personally lost 15whp on a mustang dyno. Best would be to go back to factory air boxes and use green filter drop in filters. If you truly want to keep the current intake replace the filter inside of them. Pull them out and get the measurements of the filter. Contact Airaid and get their filter https://www.airaid.com/intakesystems.aspx. They'll be able to give you a filter with more cfm than the Spectre brand filters that come with that intake.
Add some type of wideband to monitor ARFs. This will assist in letting you know if the car is running low in fuel delivery to the motor aka running lean. Too lean will pop or damage the engine. For the best of all worlds grab a Zeitronix ZT2 Ndash datalogger. It will show practically everything, fuel, engine and supercharger(intake air) temps,check engine light codes, timing, fuel trims, etc. As for your ecu tune. Race IQ would be my first choice. My second choice would be Eurocharged. Both are very good tuners.
Other than that your car is pretty solid. It has most of the supporting mods you need for your mods.

wrong. Its a full custom stainless steel exhaust mandrel bent and welded with magnaflow mufflers. It was on rockets car before ours. Its a very nice system.
typical troll post from you.
and it doesnt even remotely look like the exhaust you linked.

Sounds like someone sold you a car in pretty poor condition if everything needed to be rebuilt. You're welcome to bring it to the track next Saturday to see what it runs now that you fixed it.
