i need some tips guys on what you think please! has anyone tryed south side performance 500hp clutch pack upgrade its about 3k. i was also wanting to put ets gt35r turbo, cams, apr rod bolts,apr headstuds and more. my goal was to get to 450hp-500hp. ams said i should go with sleeved block for any general big power. but i was talking to south side performance they said just use head studs and rod bolts you should be good. my concern is my car is DD car, should i go with manuel trans swap, or go with south side clutch pack? should i go sleeved block or have stock internals and just get head studs and rod bolts? i really dont want a hole in my block

 

So do you have a Ralliart or an MR?

oh how can i forget i bought the ssp 500hp clutch paks from my homie mike at awd motorsports... pm him... he hooked me up with everything.. with a super price..

 

sorry about you motor. yeah i like the kelford s2 cams too. i have an estimate on mine for $2,169 all parts, labor $1,125 sst 500hp package. is the 500hp package holding well, i mean how much power were you pushing before your motor blew?

 

I would let a professional install all that in your car especially if you have any concerns.
