As some of you know i bought the spyrocket off my brother (Iron Goat) a while back. I put a big 16g, 660 injectors, 255 high press fuel pump on it. It already had a fidanza flywheel, Act 2600# clutch put on by my brother. Nate has tuned it a few times and he had it screaming. Well i'm still seeing knock so i'm going to change a few things. First the lifters and then move my maf to see if i cant get the trims to be more consistent.

Great post, Marcus. One thing to keep in mind is even at 500 whp you will break parts including some of your expensive aftermarket stuff. Be prepared to spend more money after building your car to fix it. I'm not trying to talk you out of anything either, but personally I couldn't handle all the nickel and diming that the dsm cost me with broken parts. If I had kept the HP down I likely would have saved myself a lot of time and money. But on the other hand I wouldn't have experienced the grins of being able to tear all four tires off in 3rd gear. There's always a sacrifice somewhere.
