Im getting really close to making purchases for my car but idk whether to buy a cam and headers first or to get a new diff and 3.55 gears?

Cam and headers or heads?? I'm assuming you mean heads if your talking about doing the rear end. I would go heads and cam first.

i would do the rear end first myself. i really think they dropped the ball not putting an LSD in our cars. why put more power into it if you can't get it to the ground.

Rear end first. Will set up future mods and probably the best bang for the buck for the seat of the pants ometer.

X2. Rear first. Don't forget those 215mm axels and hubs will snap if you ever dead hook it. For what you have in mind will the 225mm axels work with that dif. if you ever want to upgrade them? So much to consider.

As long as you don't try and beat the shit out of it, you will be ok. I'm just pointing out that at the strip with drag radials, the first time you hook up they will snap.
