    is it worth it?

    buy the cams man. you got just about 2 years before it even comes out. you can save up plenty of money from now till then to buy the bullit. you dont have to replace the valve springs or anything like that with stage 1's. just get them and have fun with them. thats my suggestion.

    Kind of Dumb Question ? (superchargers) and im shure its been ask 10,000 times

    thats exactly it. some mail tunes are the best for your car. i had a buddy who bought a powerhouse turbo for his 06 and the tune they gave him would pull all the timing out when he jumped on it. something wrong with the programming. that should say something about mail order tunes. just...

    $6,000 To Spend On Stang !!!!

    i agree with getting the forged crank. i know if i went blown im gonna wanna push 500+ on the motor. id would go with 3.73's or 4.10's as well. i got 4.10's and love them. but if i was going FI then 3.73's is the most im gonna wanna do. LT's, off road X or H, the PI swap is nice. C&L power...

    Could my engine handle Nitrous?

    i know the motor can handle 400ish or so whp. now i agree that maybe i am pushing it cause of the compression ratio i pushing. that whole 10:1 thing sucks. cause i cant boost as much if i went with a blower cause of the high compression. but thats another subject. the only i need to do is...
