same stuff over and over. how bout something semi new?

kay now were gonna build the perfect R/T

lay it out. im thinking about getting another one soo i might as well ask all opinions to build the perfect one

start with suspension, wheels, engine performance. stroker kits, supercharger or turbo, nitrous, tires. axles, even down to the stereo

lets put the pieces together.

hotchicks suspension kit, i think stock R/T wheels look the best on an R/T with mickey thompson ET drags. magnum 408 with all forged internals, custom cam,built valvetrain, fully built heads, hughes engines stage 3 TB and stage 3 intake manifold. headers and full exhaust. built 904 torqueflite with a built 9.25 with LSD. 4:56 gears. throw in a paxon supercharger and youve got an 11 second dakota.

you forgot the 200shot of giggle gas, then you got yourself a 10sec dakota.

Pioneer CD unit (for equalizer control) with two 6.5" Focal Components in the front doors and two 5X7 Focals in the rear, powered by a 500 watt 4 channel Phoenix gold amp. Dynamat inside the doors and the floor. A Phoenix Gold 1000 Watt amp powering two JL Audio 12" W3's intwo separatesealed enclosures one on each end of the rear cab facing each other and at 45 degree angle upwards. (assuming its an extended cab) gotta throw in at least one 1farad capacitor so you dont take out the alternator. May even want to put in a high output alternator along with it. Take out the sotrage under the rear seats for a custom amplifier install and install the speakers and subs to look low key. Someone who gets in your truck wont even know you have a system untill you shut the door and crank it up!

12in rear tires, a dana 60 or a ford 9in(on of the few good things ford has ever made) of corse the wheel wheels will need to made larger, a srt style hood, it there are any fiberglass front fenders to reduce weight. A 418 with twin turbos and intercoler with a 6 speed manual like a viper trans. electrice fan, move the battery to the rear and a hard cap. Paint it eather black or i would prefer Burent Orange and Silver two tone. Sway Bar and tortion bar. That is all i can think of right know.
