We could all tell you a bunch of modifications but do you have an actual power goal? It's easier to steer someone in the right direction when they have a plan than to steer them blindly.

I was just reading the K & N thread and damn I wish someone had such a deal out here on the right coast to offer free stuff. That K & N intake looks promising for sure.

Yeap you guys are the ones that usually ruin a perfectly quiet night only for us to go check out an EID that is false, oh well, the pay is good and I can actually find time to read the forums here.

I'd reccomend gettin an Injen intake.. a lil over 200 bucks and you can feel the difference right away..and you'll love the lil growl ya get in 2nd .. check out turbotechracing.com very helpful site ..and get a GM manifold.. should see some gains outta that too.
