1. Start with the K&N cold air induction.
2. The next logical step is a free flowing exhaust. This can be done with the addition of a cat-back system. There are too many to choose from, but I am always a big fan of Flowmaster. The Borla sounds pretty nice too, and is quieter. 3. A chip upgrade will give you a significant boost in performance. It just keeps going from there...

Thats a nice ride you've gotten yourself. You'll need a bit of practice to coax 12s out of her. Enough power, but putting it on the pavement is the trick.

Yup, SLP will be able to outfit it nicely, but don't buy from SLP directly. Go to www.stealthperf.com, www.thunderracing.com, or www.tbyrnemotorsports.com, or the like, and they'll be able to beat SLP's prices pretty easily...

How you liking that 300+ horsepower?
You got an exhaust I would buy headers next, haha have fun trying to put those things in. Go with a good camshaft later as well.

Congrats bud. Couldn't have picked a better colour myself!
And yes, start with a CAI, then throw a cam on that beast. I don't know how crazy you want to go - there's some really sick cams out there. I've seen an LS1 T/A break into the 11's with a GM "Hot Cam", CAI, cat-back, headers, slicks, and PCM tweaking (among other things). Theres lots of places that will tweak your computer. Check out www.pcmforless.com - they'll write you up a good map. ENJOY
