Tomorrow I'll be depositing the last that I need to order all my parts. Just wanted to check with you guys to make sure this looks good. My only question I have is I know chico said this will be good for a 3.4 pulley but should I do a 3.6 since im running a GenV?

I also have an Aeroforce and will be getting a boost gauage from ChrisGT once I hear back from him.

I was actually planning on meeting up with some guys around my area and have them tune it for me. And What plugs, Autolight 104's or NKG TR6's?

Go with a bigger cam, I suggest a NIC cam. If you are going through all that work you are doing it for performance and will not want to do it again or have to sell and buy a different cam.

Also, ZZP is not the only vendor.... you can go with an Intense cam as well. They make some nice cams. My top choice would be a NIC cam though.

Have you looked around for a used gauge pod? $70 seems crazy expensive.

I'm going with the VS because this is my DD and I have looked at other places and everything is pretty much the same price. And yea I've been hunting for a used pod everywhere and no one is selling any. $70 sucks lol

Are you pulling the engine or dropping the cradle for your install?

I think Im going with the S1X cam, seems to be a little more aggressive

VS will be fine, there are guys in the 11's with it.

Get a lot of this crap used. You are spending way too much.

I went the XP cam route, and honestly I don't think anyone would notice much difference even with it on a DD. Anyway it's all good, go with what you're comfortable with.

There is nothing wrong with the VS cam ,you can get nice #'s with the VS and to the suggestion of going with a NIC cam sure it has a nice idle and can be quick but it is a little difficult to tune in fact I ran a NIC cam for a while but wasn't happy with it of course I'm no tuner (sadly) of course this is only my opinion .Chico(pops)
