will new mods be worth it?

hEY,i have an 07 black ss/sc with intake mod, gmpp sport catback exhaust and stage II, this summer i was thinking of doing the following mods... (keep in mind i have to try to keep this car warrantied so my mods have to be something i can take out or replace before i bring to dealership if i need warranty work) ok this is what i plan to do

nate's 2.9 pulley
header/downpipe
intake
sportlines
custom tune from paul (hopefully)
will i feel the difference in those mods and are they worth it?

I was hoping to get stage 2 kit and an intake in the near future. What would my 1/4 capability be?

exactly, cobalts are capable of pretty good numbers but our traction and cooling problems kill us

No problems with those mods. You need to come out to Ruby's and chill with the LI balts sometime.

40 roll is the sweet spot for these cars, i think it would be pretty easy. If you are going to get a CAI, i recommend 3" even though they cost slightly more.
