Longtubes? CJ Intake manifold? Front K member and stuff to get some weight out? Drag suspension if it doesn't have it? Save $ for a built motor and trans?

I was thinking long tubes as well and maybe some suspension? I didn’t necessarily get it to be a full time drag car. I still want it to be streetable. But a built trans would be something I would consider also.

A good health and wellness checkup and maintenance on all critical components (oil change, coolant change, transmission flush, differential flush, brake fluid flush, injector cleaning, fuel pump inspection, fuel pump filter(s), new accessory belts, Supercharger maintenance and spark plug change, etc.) should be the first order of business. You may or may not know how well the previous owner treated the car, so give yourself peace of mind before adding more performance parts. Once that’s done and you’re satisfied that the car is healthy, continue modding and enjoy.

Yes, Paxton superchargers should be rebuilt periodically, especially if they have significant mileage or are experiencing performance issues, as it can significantly extend their lifespan and restore optimal performance by replacing worn components like bearings, seals, and O-rings, which are crucial for proper function and efficiency.

yeah, absolutely! I think all of that is very important and valid to mention. It’s definitely in the books. The car is very low miles and still smells brand new inside. Hopefully that’s an indication that all the parts will still be in great shape. And yes, all s/c’s need to be maintained over its life. I have an e55amg so I’m a little familiar with the things you mentioned.
