Lid and throttlebody- definitely- $200

Stall for auto, gears for manual- huge SOTP diffference.

Headers- maybe

Used LS6 intake- good buy

You have plenty of options.

If you get headers with a loudmouth its going to be unbarably loud, alot of people swap the resonator out for a Dyno-Max Bullet or something similar to tone it down. I say lid, and if you have an auto, then a stall as well. If you have a M6 get a shifter and a lid.

If you have an auto get a 3400 stall, if your an m6 then get the pacsetter headers and ory. It will be loud though as I had that old setup and had to switch it out to a magnaflow catback after my cam install so if you dont want an insanely loud exhaust setup then get the ls6 intake manifold and port the stock throttle body.

Try a set of subframe connectors, a new lid with a filter and keep the rest for next years mods.
