Just a fun street car. I would loooovve to track it but trying to find an open track day within a couple states next to me seems impossible to get into. Plus I would have to take off work etc. wish Charlotte had a road course.@Tyonidus, aside from being a DD, will you be drag racing, road racing or just setting the car up to be a fun street car?
If you want to help the tranny and drivetrain live, consider adding the necessary mods to eliminate wheel hop (AKA-half shaft and drivetrain killer).
Two words: cradle lockout.That was my plan for next, going 305 square on 19 inch wheels. Maybe suspension too
Keep in mind it's not only width but tire itself when it comes to the rear. If you want something that can hook power but also handle dd including rain the 555r2 is a streetable DR.That was my plan for next, going 305 square on 19 inch wheels. Maybe suspension too
Agreed the CB005 from BMR or the Steeda equivalent will make a big difference.Two words: cradle lockout.
Makes a huge difference.
I have the Steeda stop the hop, vertical links, strut tower w/ cow extension, lower K brace, g track extreme k member brace, prolly some other nonsense I can’t remember… and the FP track suspension kit should be installed by the end of the month. The car is dramatically better without the suspension. Plenty of money to be spent and fun to be had before the Whipple goes on.That was my plan for next, going 305 square on 19 inch wheels. Maybe suspension too
Sounds to me like the only thing you are missing is a 1320junkie ported intake manifold, larger injectors, fuel pump booster or and a custom tune from Lund Racing or Palm Beach Dyno to get your car to that 500 goal. If you have anymore questions about modding your car please feel free to send me a message. I'd be more than happy to answer any future questions you may have. www.lethalperformance.comI have a 2019 GT (6-speed) and I have a JLT CAI, kooks 2 7/8 long tube headers, and exhaust with a 93 octane tune from Shrader Performance (not a dyno tune). Unfortunately in my area I don’t know where I can find E85 and that kinda kills me, but it is what it is. What comes next? How can I make safe, reliable power without spending $8,000+? I don’t have a garage and a lift and all the nice tools so I’ll have to pay for labor too. The car is my daily driver and I plan to keep it that way but I want to hit 500 to the wheels if that’s possible. I’m completely new to all this so any advice is greatly appreciated. Having a hard time finding any dedicated performance shops near me who actually care about their customers and are realistic with them about things.
As for suspension upgrades I would look into our offerings such as our "Bread and Butter", Biscuits and Gravy", and "Bacon and Eggs" packages. Also the Kelltrac suspension package is a very popular kit we sell as well. Here is a link to view all of our suspension kits.You know what buddy? That is so reasonable. I need suspension and wheels and tires anyways lol
