Default What mods to do next?

I have about $1200 Dollars to spend. Current mods are:

224/227 Cam
Pacesetter Headers & ORY
3500 Stall TC
Cutout

Car is a 99 TA

I'm thinking about:

LS6 Intake ($400)
Catback ($400?)
LCA's ($125)

So that leaves mea bout $300 to play with. Any suggestions?

those are excellent choices...get some subframe connectors...on a side note did your tranny mount make more noise...get ls6 intake, magnaflow cat-back, and bmr lca's and sfc's..that would be my choice

That's a great combo right there. I would do a pulley for sure.

Drop the pulley and sub frames and buy a good set of LCAs or tires

The LCAs I had in mind are the BMR poly/rubber ones, and I just got a new set of Pirelli's on the front with Nitto 555 RII's on the rear.
