Everything I want to do
2- I already have a shop that will only charge labor (so long as I supply the parts obviously)
Now on to the good stuff, i was wondering if anyone could give me a horsepower/torque estimate.
My first step is to cut some weight, which would involve removing the back seat, a lighter battery, carbon fiber rims, carbon fiber hood and other chassis parts, maybe just the hood.
Next is suspension and wheels. I plan on lowering the rear suspension by 1" and getting 22"s in back (effectively leveling it out again) and getting high performance springs/coilovers - not sure from where.
Camaro 6.2L Airaid Cold Air Intake, Vortech v2 or v20 Centrifugal Supercharger (can't decide), an intercooler, larger fuel injectors,Gas flowed head, Flowmaster cat back.
Then the last things i'll do are get a sport cam with matched profile to Gas Flowed head flow rate, cylinder re-bore with larger lower compression pistons (reduce the compression ratio with some S/C applications to prevent ignition problems)
If there is anything I missed or anything that is completely not worth doing let me know what you think!

Im telling you dont get a full carbon wheel, A lot of my import buddys had cf hoods and stuff, and that stuff is dangerous. The problem i would have is the fact that CF shatters not bends. So thats my two cents. Look into getting some light weight alloy wheels
Also i personnally like Koni/Ground control setup on cars
okay im hooked, get a full CF battery A CF Trunk and Hood The v20(cause bigger=better) and i like comp or Skunk2 cams.

Uh, I am into performance and stuff that makes your car go faster with less weight and all.... And those wheels do look VERY dangerous.
But only if it gets hit will it present a problem. If you baby your car and take it easy on speed bumps and all, then maybe ok. But do realize that every time that you remove your wheels, since the lug nuts are screwed onto the wheel, it takes that little bit of wheel off and that adds up. So you will have to replace you wheels more often because as mentioned CF shatters so I would assume it would chip off little by little so you would have to buy a new wheel again regardless of condition....
Seems pricey but if you have the money............ Then go ahead and please post pics of final product!

After some reaserch get the V2 cause the V20 looks like it will blow your **** to pieces.
