Ok I’ve go the DEV 5, got the LSD, got the manual, got the brakes and suspension, and it's almost finished being swapped from the Fairmont to a lighter (No smashed in) Falcon.
The question is after I do the computer what is the next step? Doesn't have to be street able just really crazy fast!! If Turbo is the answer then what Turbo? Or should I back away from the EA and except it as being as fast as it is going to get?

Nitrous will allow you to keep your current compression.
If you do a turbo build you will likely need to change your pistons and get a new head to get the compression down to a turbo friendly limit. Its about 10:1 now isnt it? I say sell it and charge the 8.

You always say charge the 8, and you only want me to put a nitro kit on it so when i am dune you can by it off me for cheap.
I think its high nine point something.

Hi Mike, Good to see things are somehow working out for you since the crash. I do suggest keeping it N/A for now....Yep, lets tune it hard with a computer of some sort and give it a hit of NOS once you get use to driving it first.
Then drop in some good drag suspension and mod up some more tricky bits to help it go fast and go racing real time !
