A built up transmission would be a good start so you don't have a car that can't go anywhere after the first run.

Very good advice. I didnt do things this way. Everything worked out in the end but the transmission and a tuner should be two of the first mods you do if your seriouse about making any kind of power down the road.

What are your HP or 1/4 mile goals?

Your going to need a $3000+ tranny.
Your never going to stop going for more HP or lower E.T's.
Your going to want the Stattama turbo kit with a T67 turbo and the Largest FMIC you can fit in there.
Your going to **** your pants.

His goal [as stated in another thread] is 14 maybe high 13's

Its a more pricey and time consuming project then some people can imagine. I just hope the said vehicle is not a DD.
