Hey guys.. well the time is coming within the month where im going to be putting in my built transmission from level ten (automatic yes) *bash elsewhere please but ive not yet seen anyone else do this*. i am hoping of pushing 11 psi and 8 psi dd but if i dont get the numbers i like im wondering what kind of supporting mods i can put on to help increase my numbers. (not doing block work just yet)

Things im guessing that could help :
Meth Injection (safe?,reliable?,what kind of numbers?)
Upgraded Fuel pump + rail?

meth injection, cams, intercooler sprayer, re-tune (may not help much).

meth and cams would give you a nice gain.

NICE! :clap: can't wait to see what that level10 tranny can do.

I'm not sure what the rest of your setup is, but I'd say open up the exhaust (3" or cutout) and better tuning on better fuel management (standalone)

I would get a standalone EMS first before thinking of getting anything else.

Then you can worry about adding cams and such.

Like I said before.. get a standalone.

Why bother with everything else? The standalone is the main component - it's what can "talk" with your meth kit - it's what can tune your cams - it's 100x better than a Greddy blue box.
