If you are going high performance gauges are a MUST to monitor the motor ... I've seen far too many peeps spendf $3/$5k on a motor then blow it because something went wrong , that proper gauges would have prevented ..
Larger injectors and fuel management can be used on both situations ...

Damn dog its looks like im gonna have to get it after all my car is too damn slow! I had a 4 ppl in my wip the other day and man! I need new shocks first of all it look like I dropped the suspension. Prolly about 500lbs in total weight. So CAI, 2 1/2 CBE, Underive pulley seems to expensive 4 one part so Ill get the cams, umm and fuel injectors, oh and a stage 1 clutch.

I need a transmission mount and I was gonna replace the one in the rear as well since I already close by. I was wondering should I polyurethane the new mounts or the old ones. I can only keep my car off the road for one day because of work.

It's easier to poly NEW ones ... since they are already centered and not egged out

It's a polyurathane (similar to rubber) but it's stiffer you mix it and pour it in and let it harden up ...
