Default wonder what my next move should be?

Bout to get my car back in a week after having built for the last 3 months with what I got in my sig. And yes i have a stage 3 clutch, (not enough room in the sig), just spent 5 g's, don't have enough right now for a brand new procharger, just seeing what else I could do in the mean time? and comments are appreciated.

how's your suspension?

not trying to rain on your parade, but i hope you don't procharge that car. that cast crank won't be able to handle it. the cast cranks really aren't very strong

suspension is not bad, guy who I bought my assebley from said crank was good to about 600 usable hp. I know I will be no where near that N/A, I hope I hit low 400 n/a. He did say that if i went turbo that would be better givin there is no strain on the crank with a turbo

i know what the manufacturers say the cranks are good for...but i've read a lot of horror stories about guys snapping those cast cranks.

what do you mean suspension is not bad? have you done anything with it?
