Just purchased first WS6 Trans Am!!!!!! Hey guys,
I just purchased a 2000 trans am ws6 off a guy in detroit. It is a 6spd pewter t-top loaded that is in perfect i mean perfect condition.
It only has 22000 miles and i picked it up for $18,250 which i thought was a fair price since i could basically eat off the wheel well it was so clean. It has never seen snow or rain. It only has a corsa cat-back that was installed at the dealership upon delivery so it was a dealer option, not factory.(I am wondering if it is corsa i will post a pic of rear, it is aftermarket though)Anyways after a lil background, WHAT IS THE BEST FIRST PERFORMANCE MODS FOR A LS1? I WAS THINKIN A LIB AND SMOOTHBELLOW? I AM NOT SURE AND I CANT GO OUTRAGEOUS SINCE I JUST BOUGHT IT.
Thx rob
P.S.- sold my 94 z28 to purchase so not new to modding just ls1!!

Lid, BGRA (brian greene ram air), air filter (k&n or holley), smooth bellow.
From what I've heard; don't do FRA (free ram air) on a WS6, and MAF sensors are a waste of money.

Agreed, still need to see exhaust to tell. Thanks for the info though.
