Keep it stock. Things break when you mod cars.

You can consider CNC ported heads, intake manifold upgrade with bigger throttle body and forge your block, but it depends what your budget is or what your goals are for your car

No need to forge. Forge internals when it blows!!

Start with all boltons and clutch/flywheel...

Then go with ported stock heads from AI and a fast 92mm ported. Should be fast!

Start with the suspension.

No need to forged till it blows. Been there lol. Do a few suspension upgrades to start, then work your way to heads, cam and the other stuff.

Bolt ons only but doing cam work and internals

how much is your budget? What are your plans for the car? If you dont plan on boosting the car, you dont need forged internals.

A set of 3.91 gears and a tune would be great if your on a budget. H/C/I Would be pretty shout.

I just went with a TSP 228r camshaft with dual springs and rods.

Are you not spelling "and" on purpose. And I'd without a doubt start with suspension.

I would say do the cheap things first that actually add a difference in not how fast it is, but how long it will last!

Drag bags for 100 would be a start, diff bushings and rear poly mounts to elimanite wheel hop.

i dont really have a budget nd i dont want to boost it either i jst wanna do a Cam of course(love the sound) forged internals becauses i wanna run NOS nd all the other boltons like u guys have been telling me throttle body,flywheel,ported heads(either stock or aftermarket)clutch u knw i jst need helping like what specific parts of each do u recomend beign gto owners i want to knw what works best for you guys or what r u confortable with lets not forget its a daily driver too..

Maybe add brakes and headers before cam and valvetrain.

04's stop like ****.

SJFGTO

I agree about the brakes, I think he posted that he already has headers.

upgrade to the 05 / 06 brakes at least. then cam the **** out of it.
matching heads and supporting valvetrain.

CTS-V fronts would be a nice upgrade for a little more money
