[QUOTE="mach1033, post: 11153073, member: 55536"] My first set up was this. 03 vert with full subs, magnaflow catted x, magnaflow catback, 60lb injectors, street tires and 2.3 whipple with stock pulley and TB. Car made 500hp and 490tq. Pro's. A BIG FAT ZERO!!!!! Cons. Wheel hop was unreal. Zero traction could only do 3rd gear runs. Car would fall on its face in between shifts due to the PPRV. Second set up got a little smarter and addressed all the crap that verts are known for. Fuel system upgrades to the full Fore set up from lethal. 4lb lower with with 3.0 upper on the 2.3 making 21lbs of boost. Tuned with torco. Went with Mac LTs, lethal x pipe and magnapack catback. Full tilt boogie bushing kit. MM complete coilover kit, strut tower brace, K member, A-arms with delrin bushings, front and rear bumpsteer. Spec 3+ clutch with 26 spline upgrade. Steeda tri-ax shifter. Finally and the most important of all was a set of M/T drag radials. Pro's. I no longer worried about spinning from a dig. Handling is unreal and I wish I could describe it with words but I just cant. All I can say is as soon as you move the steering wheel the car is shooting for that direction. The A-arms moved the front wheels further apart and now it just bites if that makes sense. Zero wheel hop which is great. I no longer have that annoying vert shake going over things like railroad tracks. The only time I would lose in a race were from cars that made more power than me. Other than that like CBR mentioned I pretty much destroyed anything that pulled up to me. Con's. Tuned for torco which meant it cost's more money to fill up when ever I went on long trips. Street tires are no longer an option. DR's are a must. Third set up was my 2.9 upgrade. 3.5 upper with 4lb lower. 23.5lbs of boost with torco. Pro's. My car was insanely fast and never stopped pulling. Con's. Maxed out the 60lb injectors along with the GT pumps. I blew my motor during a race due to the fuel system not being up to the task. 4th set up on the way$$$$$$ :-D [/QUOTE]
