sorry bout the late reply~~ i don't have a connection at home. i traded in my 2000 z28 for the 2002 formula firebird. i do miss the convertable top and leather of my z28 but it was an auto so i opted for the formula. it's got a t top and has nothin done to the engine nor the suspension. i find that the suspension can't handle the hp under the hood off the line. i don't know wether i should start on suspension or the engine. ~~;

Hey,
First off welcome to the site. If you say that the supsension can't handle the horsepower under the hood, then I would start off with the suspension.  Just so that it doesn't feel like that when you have a poor acceleration due to the setup. You could go with new shocks, springs, or maybe the SLP Level One Suspension Package that includes all of the above along with sway bars. Then you can move on and gets H/C, exhaust, intake, and supercharger?!?!?!?!?!? That's just what I would do. Others may think differently.See ya on the road, Matt  P.S. Send us some pictures!!!!!

sweet! i wouldnt get slp nothing. if it has wheel hop get some bmr lca's, sfc's,and a stb. that should hold you over for a while. then if you think you need more get some hals. as far as power mods. get a good air lid (tsp 85mm),good filter,bellow,ported tbody, pulley (asp), headers (qtp,ppc,kooks,etc not slp!), get a good catback corsa,b&b,gmmg,mufflex and not flowmaster. if you need more get a good heads and cam package. or a blower or nitrous. good luck and have fun.
