Default Trying to hit 450hp to the wheels? Advice?

99 Trans am ws6 Convertible
160k virgin ls1 motor.


Hey guys so im basically trying to get some input on the easiest way to hit 450 to the wheels?

so far i have these parts lined up for the car

Speed Engineering true dual 3' set up with X pipe & dual resonators
Pacesetter LT headers
MTI LID
Fast toys under rad ram air box
Base street tune
Wolfe 4 pt rollbar

I have about 4 grand to spend on parts and i want to spend the money efficiently without going overboard, im trying to keep the car streetable and i want to maintain reliability.

I would like to keep the car N/A, through some of my buddies experiences ive realized power adders almost always end up in money pits because everything starts breaking lol.... Plus i feel like my horsepower goals do not need a power adder and could easily be obtained on an N/a Motor.

I would like to keep the car between 450-500 hp to the wheels max.

can you guys suggest any mods/ head/cam combos to consider?

OP, checkout my signature. 447 rwhp and 431 rwtq through a LS6 intake. I don't have new numbers since the FAST install, but should be 470 rwhp.
