Im looking to buy a Vortech S-trim with Intercooler, what other things should I buy to go along with it to make sure Im getting the most out of it.. I dont really want to go over board, just make sure I have everything I need to get the most out of it.

 

A set of forged pistons .

 

Im not wanting to tear into the engine just yet.. I know eventually Ill have to to rebuild it. Im thinking of things like higher flow injectors or anything like that..

 

bigger injectors, a fuel pump, a good tune and a new pair of boxers

Get the crankcase evac system up to par too. Putting the blower on the car without properly venting the increased crankcase pressure will, more than likely, lead to numerous oil leaks.

I welded an AN fitting onto the passenger side valve cover and routed a 5/8" heater hose over to the drivers side front where I mounted an oil catch can - from the catch can down to the intake pipe of the blower. Tonight i'm adding an oil/water seperator on it to cut down on the amount of oil that still blows by.

Fuel system, wires, plugs, tune.

 

DarkHorse- does mounting the crankcase ventilation filter on the valve cover help at all or are those just for NA motors..?

That didn't work for me - the pressure isn't relieved fast enoug that way. Plumbing it into the intake tube of the blower - after the MAF - created a suction system which evac's pretty nice. Problem is that oil vapors will still exist. I'm installing the oil seperator to fix this issue.
