The first thing you gotta do is go over and hit the "CAPS LOCK" key. It's really hard to read all caps, and people won't take you seriously.

You won't ever be able to do "Crazy Burnouts" but you will be able to spin the tires from a dig. Check out this thread: http://www.pontiacbonnevilleclub.com/fo ... =44&t=1660

Please read this ---> Spelling, punctuation, and grammar


It is very difficult to understand what you are saying in your posts between typing in CAPS LOCK and the bad spelling, punctuation, and grammar. If you really want the help, take your time and make your posts easy to read and understand.

Dude, a 2.0 inch pulley is WAY too small. Also, MSD plug wires aren't worth the money, the Beldin Premium wires from NAPA are just as good for half the price.

If you're planning on mods, get copper core plugs, not iridium.

No need to point. I've been watching. My comments in BOLD :

MADDEN95L wrote:ok i got an local performance to look at my car .the shop said the only things i need was tune-up,spark plugs , spark plug wire's,supercharge coupler and mototr mount's and tran's mounts . so i odered all them parts already. this os the list of the things i wanted to do to my car.

1. msd wires-already ordered this part. Waste of money. You could have bought 2 sets of Beldens for less, and wires don't gain you power. More than half the quickest 25 cars on this Forum run Belden Premium from NAPA with a lifetime warranty.
2.Autolite-Xp-Iridium/Spark Plug- already ordered this part. Waste of money. You'll need to change your plugs to a colder heat range very soon if you don't blow your motor first. Go buy NGK TR55 V-Power plugs now, and gap them at .055".
3.ZZP Supercharger coupler-already ordered this part. Good. Is yours rattling?
4.GM Series 1 Style Supercharger Pulley : size 2.0 I believe your motor will blow before your transmission, but it's really a tossup at this point. Go get a 2.3" pulley if you don't have a scanner.
5.zzp supercharger oil 120z. bottle. Holy oil, batman, that's enough to fill DOZENS of superchargers. You needed one small bottle.
6.m60 super charger port and polish. You have an M62. If you've never rebuilt one, and never ported one, it's time to re-think this. They're expensive, and porting and polishing will net you 5-10 hp at MOST, assuming everything else is perfect.
7.k&n cold air filter. What part number and what location?
8. and i guess take my rev limiter to have my car doing 140+mph. write anyone to help me out with other suggestions. Why? Your motor will blow long before you get there with your planned setup. Who's going to remove the rev limiter for you? Links?


Now let's start over the right way. Please state your budget and your performance goals. What do you want the car to do? We'll tell you what's possible within your budget and help you do it the right way. That pulley will HURT your performance if it doesn't just chunk your pistons first. The age of your car dictates setting aside about $2500 if you plan to add power just for your transmission. The list goes on farther than that.

You can't have both. The Series 1 is a great bottom end car, and is capable of high speeds, but it's going to take you awhile to get up there. It's not a freeway-passing type drivetrain, and it was never meant to be. You're beating a nearly-dead horse. Your SSEi is nearly 18 years old now, and you want to take it to 140? Replace the entire suspension, steering, and frame bushings first. You can't afford the check the grim reaper is writing for you.

Option 1 (most logical): Sell your car, add your budget of 1500 into it, and buy something newer to beat on or modify.

Option 2 (next best idea): Set aside your money, and keep saving. When you have enough to rebuild the transmission, start saving money to modify the car.

Option 3 (assuming you insist on beating the nearly-dead horse):

-Tear off the top end. Replace all the gaskets except head gaskets, completely flush the coolant, and replace.
-Replace your water pump if you don't know how old it is.
-Replace your O2 sensor if you don't know how old it is, or if it's 50-60k or older.
-Clean your MAF sensor, and remove the TB from the car, clean it well, especially the IAC passage (see Techinfo).
-Have the supercharger rebuilt by someone who knows how.
-REMOVE the exhaust manifolds from the car and take them to a competent welding shop. You have cracks, and they'll kill you. Anyone who says they don't have cracks on a Series 1 supercharged engine is lying or just got back from the exhaust shop.
-High flow cat, muffler if you choose to alter sound, as it won't add performance.
-Fender Well Intake (FWI) from INTENSE-Racing.
-2.3 and 2.2 supercharger pulleys, but not until you buy a scanner capable of reading real-time data.
-180° thermostat.
-Adjustable shift modulator.
-VERY large aftermarket transmission cooler.

This is the basic CHEAPER stuff. It will net you a car that runs in the low-15's at best, due to the age. Your transmission may make it even slower. Great grunt off the line with good 60' times, but on the 1/4 mile, you'll get killed because Series 1 motors don't breathe well at the top end. They're stoplight racers, or 1/8 milers. Your transmission will begin to suffer very soon. Be ready for a rebuild, and don't cut corners on it either.

My 93 is paying the price for how far I've pushed it. I deal with it almost daily, and three years in a row now, it's broken at the track. I tear it down almost every winter. It gets one more year at the track at WCBF 2011 with the intercooler, then it gets de-modded if it doesn't blow up in the attempt.

.....and save your last 500 bucks or so for good brakes and suspension. Your shocks are probably shot, and I bet a bunch of bushings are too.
