What year car? If 98-00 get an LS6 intake manifold.

Ported TB, cold air induction, subframe connectors, underdrive pulley...

What do you want to do with it? If it's going to see much track time go ahead and work on the 9" with some tires/suspension.

You could always get a cam.

LS6 intake is worthwhile, especially once you add any intenal mods. I gained 42 rwhp with LS6 intake and SLP underdrive pulley WHILE increasing my stall speed.

Fuel system is fine, unless you are going to max out the stock injectors. If you want to spray you may well have to go ahead and upgrade injectors, fuel pump, etc...

That wasn't so much power out of the intake as it was power that the stock LS1 intake was choking away from the cam on the top end. Increasing stall speed typically lowers the RWHP through higher parasitic powertrain losses.
