Congrats. on your new buy. I would say airlid, freemods, long tube headers with Y-pipe, catback with cut-out, gears 3:73s or 4:10s, and a good tune. Then you could do cam and heads.

Port your throttle body, headers, cam, and stall.... all very good, oh and do yourself a favor and put a transmission cooler on it asap before you have problems... If your not really a road racer dont do the stall. it hinders drivability in wet conditions.

I would get a 3200-3600 stall right away! Dont forget the tranny cooler when you do. How big of a cam are you looking at? Its always best to take care of the boltons before you throw a cam in.

Thanks again
I know that things cost and i cant do al now, but i want to have a plan. Otherweise its easy just to buy and then the parts not be suitable with each other.
I want a fun ride with some more HP than stock and a little bit quicker.
I haven't order any HP parts, just bought a TSP lid from a freind.

Full exhaust, cam, and gears. If you want to keep it a street car I would stay away from a stall or at least a big stall. Stay low like 2400 to 3200. Pace Setter long tubes are great and pretty cheap. A nice cat back like Borla or Magna Flow. Gears like 4.10's or 3.73's.
