Main things for 96+ 420A's is to:
1) Make sure you have a missing link
2) Make sure your fuel system is up to par (Fuel pressure, feed and return lines and some sort of FP regulator ie, SFMU or megasquirt)
3) If you are going to boost more than 9psi, you need a bottom end rebuild to be safe.
4) DO YOUR HOMEWORK. Lack of research will blow your car up.
