Just wondering what the weak points are to this car and/or drivetrain if I start adding big power.

I know the first thing we all think about is adding HP, but at what cost? Are there any reliability concerns or known parts that need strengthened or replaced?

TIA!

justin has a good point... anything can and will break if driven right, err wrong, whatever...

but.... with that said, our trannies are known to not be able to handle what we mod them to go through... if you have a three bolt rear end... that's pretty weak too. while anything can and will go.. that's my bet as to what will go first, or what will cost the most to fix. or what you should strengthen up bbefore pushing the limit.

game over.
