adding boost. what next

[beefcake]

hey guys im going to add an ESS blower to my 20 gt in march. planning out the build list on what to do next. performance shop that im going to with there kit (ess g3, opg, headers, bigger fuel pump, ect.) stated it will net me around the 720whp area. this car will be the typical street car going through twisties and do roll races (40 and 60 rolls) with ocassionally going to the drag strip. i have most of the steeda parts for the twisties (ill add the list at the end) but i have no parts to help for the extra power such as half shafts or driveshaft. do i need to upgrade those? if i do then what brands are the best quality and balanced as i HATE having the howling sound of the diff lol or do i need to even get upgrades since im mostly doing roll racing anyway? all advice is appreciated. also any other parts to add to this list please let me know was think about adding a roll correction kit and end links as well

installed parts:

ford performance magneride lowering springs

ford performance front and rear sway bars

ford performance magneride tune

bmr 4 point front chassis brace

steeda sub frame connectors

steeda irs alignment kit

steeda toe links

steeda diff bushing kit

steeda vertical links

steeda irs bushing insert kit

poly lca bushings

ford performance knuckle to toe link bearing

steeda camber bolts

definitely reach out to us and we can help you with all the supporting much you need. We specialize in super charging so we can definitely help out.

Look at the Vengeance Stage 2 clutch. It's a little more forgiving than the RXT from McLeod and it has sinks/fins on the flywheel to dissipate heat, which kills clutches. You should call Terry and his guys at @beefcake and run things by them. They are very knowledgeable and will work a package deal with you.

i would agree worh you if it was just a bap but we are replacing the fuel pump and going a little bigger on the injectors than what normally comes with the kit. also too lets not forget ambient temp plays a factor in the dyno numbers as well lol

What pulley? That's what matters.. I didn't see you mention a fuel system, so I am assuming 120 pulley. That is not likely to get you over 700.

At 500ft elevation that pulley might be too much. Probably safer to run a 120mm, its not the best idea to try and make 700 plus on pump gas on an ess... takes more boost to do so. If you go 93 with a 115mm at 12:1 compression you'll most likely be really pushing the edge of what the motor will take. I'd stick to a 120 at the smallest and instead of doing the pump just run a bap and save for a fuel system.
Edit: Especially with catted long tubes...

getting back to my original post. based off of the parts that are already installed is there anything else driveline or suspension wise that i should add?
