Transgo Shift kit would be a good place to start...It will lessen the wear on the clutch and you've gotta do a fluid and filter change to get at it anyways.

Contact Tim King and have him build you one and never look back. He will ship it to your house or a business(preferred). Best mod I have done to mine minus the turbo kit. ;)

If you are not putting in a new trans then stay S/C. Regardless your tranny will take a dump anyways. :)

My daily has a turbo kit.
If you don't feel comfortable spending $2000-$4000 on a kit then stay S/C. You will spend more money than your car is worth.

Shift kit and bump up line pressure and don't beat the shit out of it and you'll be fine. And DO NOT flush the trans fluid, just refill what you lost when dropping the pan to do the shift kit.

why pacesetters? speed daddies are cheaper and made of stainless and still have a 3" DP

they also seal better

On the pulleys you're gonna have to play that one safely. Drop to a 3.4 and tune it then go to 3.3 and scan to see how the car handles it. The Gen 3 supercharger isn't as efficient as the gen v and not as "giving" when it comes to pulley sizes. The cam should help too so if you drop to 3.3 pulley and can tune out the kr properly you should be fine.

You do know how to or have someone who can tune your car correct?
