Simple: Wait for all the forced induction kits that are soon to hit the market, and pick one.

Flywheel???

Remember, this thread is Advice on AUTO 8. We don't have such a thing. We have a big heavy torque convertor there, which is probably the biggest reason our cars don't have a 9K rpm redline like the manual.

1)e-manage
2)hi-flow cat
3)lightweight wheels/tires
4)g-tech for confirmation

Take weight off the crank: SR Pulley Set ~12 HP they say and Light weight Flywheel. Both of these mods can be kept to work with forced induction.

I would stay away from exhaust since they don't hardly add any HP...or worse reduce it. Read Racing Beat's writeup about the mod~HP listing.

Also you can check out their Flywheel.
