[QUOTE="GT Premi, post: 15975869, member: 121775"] False all day long. OP get yourself: lightweight wheels carbon fiber or aluminum driveshaft lightweight clutch and flywheel a set of billet pulleys from Billet Pro Shop (haven't seen Sylvain post in her in a long time) an auxiliary idler pulley for more belt wrap around the supercharger pulley a stronger belt tensioner That will make your GT500 come alive like you wouldn't believe! You've got the [rear] suspension parts covered, but I [i]highly[/i] recommend swapping out the panhard bar for a Watts link. I'd bet your biggest issue right now is belt slippage on the top end. Do you notice a sulfur smell when you go WOT to the top of the revs? Notice any rubber dust on your supercharger pulley? If so, you have belt slippage. Stopping the slippage will make it feel like you gained a good 50HP at the wheels, depending on how bad it is. Also, like mentioned, make sure your cooling is in check. A Killer Chiller is the best way to go, but most recommend an upgraded heat exchanger with fans. [/QUOTE]
