..nice chioce..just spend your time researching "stuff" on HDF and by the time you decide you will have changed your mind three times..that's a good thing as you will only buy part once.

here's what i have learned about soupin stuff up....buy the biggest you can....cause power's addictin....if you dont, you'll continually be sellin off stuff to buy more...just go big and bad right off....second, everything is a pkg deal...you hop up the motor, better hop up the chassis and tranny along with the clutch...you can do it in stages but dont start hammer'n til its complete or you'll pay to fix stuff for no good reason...third, dont believe the magazines...they're ******, they'll promote whoever's product is spendin the money an lots of em caint even turn a wrench....trust guys who run stuff and try things, they know...

so to get your feet wet, buy some pipes with O2 bungs, a DTT, and a really good A/C...you wont go wrong there and its the ground floor you'll need for any build

I agree with Bryan.....pipes, AC and either a DTT or Thundermax.....then it's just wheter you want to go fast first.....or have the looks first.....or what the hell...do it all at one time!

Thanks for the tips folks. I'm just gonna complete the stage 1 for now,then i'll see what I like and don't like. I am sure that before long i'll be out there with some stage 3/4 hotrodding. It's just an addiction is all.

DTT hmmm...... Im really thinking about that.... Maybe Ill do that before I figure out a build.... I know the Rineharts only have one bung so I'll need to put on another.... Then I'll need to figure out a build....

**EDIT**
Im just tired of trying to get a good tune from a dyno. Im tired of smelling fuel at idle.... I just want a good close loop system that will work.... Just like a vehicle I hope it will auto tune..
