Just want some advice or opinions on my setup and if anyone has run anything like this or have had any bad or good experiences with it. Or if there is something else that i should get.

sounds pretty good, but if I were you I would rather have a 3" exhaust and downpipe, but it is not really neccesary with that low boost
my friend has a similar set-up, but he has a VAFC II instead of AEM (you did good there)
he has 2.5" dp and 3" exhaust and makes 300+whp on pump gas at like 10-12 psi
you might want a thicker headgasket to lower compression and allow more boost (he's got that too)
you can run more boost than 7-9 psi with the AEM on the motor even though it is stock, but it is understandable if you want to play it safe
pretty good set-up overall, you should be pretty happy with it

I am planning on getting different pistons and rods next year but getting this stuff and trying to do it right the first time costs money and i dont have enough to get the pistons and rods this year. Same for the 3" downpipe and exhaust. I figure i want to keep it kinda safe on the motor going to 10psi tops for next summer. I also thought about getting a little stonger of a clutch but i figure the organic ones are pretty cheap and aint that big of a deal just to try out for now and get a stronger one later when i have the funds. The organic should be fine for the summer with only with this setup.

i would say that i'm a pretty good driver. with this setup at lets say 9 psi can anyone give me and estimate of what i would run in the quarter mile or what i would have for hp. also any more comments on my setup. I think that i will run low 13's and about 250hp or so.
