Default TBSS Build

Im building a TBSS for a friend. It was an AWD model but he had them convert it to RWD. The current mods are E-Fans, tranny cooler with fan, Vigilanti 3600 stall, OBX headers and Y pipe, custom CAI and a tune. Right now were debating on either a turbo setup or just spraying the hell out of it. As of now i know its gonna be a forged 370 with some build 243's (flowing 320cfm) the rest will depend on what power adder we end up going with. I was wondering if anyone made a front mount turbo kit for the TBSS?

Should be fast, but shouldof kept the AWD. gonna spin like crazy off the line. If you go turbo you may want to look into a tighter torque converter.

Agreed. Any chance of changing it back to AWD? The added traction will by far outweigh the weight of the components.

Same thing i was thinking but they took everything off and the front differential is really shot. That converter is coming out and making way for an edge converter.
