So What Now? I want to make my car faster now... obviously, my car is not modded very much i have the gmmg exhaust and a ls1 motorsports lid and would like to know what to do next... i have somewhat of a spending budget so any bolt on mods that you guys have done to your cars i can probably do. List some or most of them that u have made Thanx for any feedback in advance
Edit: Its an m6 149K miles 315 toyo tqs, 3K miles between oil changes W/ royal purple syn oil havent changed spark plugs nor wires no other fluids have been flushed it is my dd previous owner claimed he had 3.73's but i doubt it since the cover screws look like they havent been tampered with

First off Id grab a set of drag radials and long tube headers. Even cheap ebay XS stainless LTs will get the job done if your on a budget for only $200.
Then depending on what transmission you have....
M6- 4.10's
Automatic- 3600-4000 converter
And as always Nitrous is the cheapest way to knocking off 1 sec off your current ET.

^^ +1 i'm with this guy. Get a full tune-up plugs, wires, coolant, oil, trans/diff fluids, etc. and have at it.
Also if it is a A4 with 2.73's upgrade to 3.42's and an aluminum driveshaft (M6 car standard stuff) man you'll thank me later
In conjunction with the higher stall converter of course.
A lil more info on the car would help the process go easier

You should get that LS6 intake and p/p that stock tb. If you have a little money left over get the FTRA or SSRA. It creates more power by sucking in air under the nose of your car. One of the best mods to do IMO. 4.10 gears would be a nice upgrade as well
