Can't wait for my s/c.

So I made the glorious mistake of ordering my supercharger a few weeks before Christmas. I wasn't the only one lol and now the shipping has taken longer than expected and needless to say the anticipation is killing me lol. Can't wait to join the ipf gang on here.

Yes, I will probably be hounding you all with questions the day of installation lol, I checked out your build thread for pics of the install, very nice ride, sounded awesome in the video, how is it holding up?

I am here for pointers too, I have done a lot of research and R/D. Magnum is especially good at the tuning info too.

Thanks But no problem, I had a bunch of advice given by fellow IPF'ers to help along the way.

Its a beast and running flawless. Improving the Catch can system as we speak.

Cool and thanks, after this I'm upgrading the brake system, nothing too flashy just a modest upgrade to slotted/drilled rotors, new pads. After that some suspension work will most definitely be in order. I'm not much of a track guy, I've just wanted a Camaro since I played with Hot Wheels in the dirt as a kid. I've had the car for almost two years and I just can't seem to stop modifying this and wanting to tweak that. What catch can system are you improving to? Just improving upon the one you have or replacing the system entirely?

That will be a great combo for your brakes. As for suspension, I would look at LSR. I have their Sways, Trailing arms, and toe links and makes a huge difference. As for the catch can, i bought the E2 elite can with dual ports. and am about to buy a 1LE separator for the clean side to the supercharger inlet.

dumb question. and a little off topic, I'm familiar with sways, but what're the benefits of trailing arms and toe links?

Basically stabilizing the rear wheels when they're under load (accelerating/turning). Keeps them from flexing out of optimal alignment.
