Default recommendations?

hey I am new to the forum and would appreciate some advice.

I own a 2000 formula ws6 with a slp lid and cat back.
i have about 800 dollars for mods and am wondering what to do. I was thinking maybe 4.10's or full exhuast. I know there are lots of other options though. Would like to know what works best on these cars.
Any input would be appreciated

get the full exhaust, you will love it. the rear end is the weakes point in our cars and putting 4.10's in is like a ticking time bomb, unless you have a auto, which can take a little more abuse.
you can get a set of pacesetters and y-pie for around 400-500- best bang for the buck in long tubes. stay away from flowtechs- pos.

One more vote for LT's & Y pipe. With the rest, LS6 intake mainifold or SFC's. If your going to drop any money on the rearend save up for a 12 bolt.

Welcome

Is this a factory WS6? If so, you own an extremely rare WS6 car. One of about 232 built in '00. Very nice.
