Default What road to take?

I have a 2000 WS6 Auto with 46,000 miles on it, all stock now. I want to up the HP. I have done alot of reading, but don't know what the best route would be. I want the car to be more street then strip since I don't go to tracks. I don't want it to be loud. I like the stock sound now. Would it be better to stroke it with a 383 kit or Procharge it? I want to stay away from nitrous and turbo's don't seem to do good on stock bottom ends. Thanks

if u had the money to throw on a blower i would say go for it just as long as you got supporting mods like longtube headers and such. but if not, a H/C auto with a torque converter will be nice.
