Default off season project

I have a 99 Trans am stock bottom end ls1 with a procharger pushing 9 lbs of boost. Stock heads with jesel 1.8 roller rockers and patriot gold valve springs.also has ls6 intake. Im ordering some long tube headers with a y pipe with no cats. Have the stock throttle body and stock maf. I want to do a blower cam that is still streetable its mostly a street car with a few track runs. What would you recommend. Also when i tune the car should i go speed dsnsity or keep the maf. Otherwise what else should i do

If you're procharged then you want the most free flowing exhaust you can get.
Whats your budget? Skip the Y-Pipe go with true duals, they are a tad loud for a DD but you need to have a free flowing exhaust, so get the biggest headers you can afford.

Simple good streetable cam is the LS6/Z06 cam or LSA/LS9 cam, also very affordable.

And get a professional tune.

The car is getting tuned again early spring. I just don't know if i should go speed density or not. Are those cams you recommend good for a blower. I want it to sound a little lopey.
