As far as bang-for-your-buck, my cutout is tough to beat. Although I love my 3.73 gears, not too sure my tires do....

SFC's will make your car feel more together and tight. I loved the night and day difference they made on my car. It's the first thing you should do anyway..

I love hearing my cam lope and the exhaust at WOT so I'd say cam and exhaust are my fav.

4.10 gears take the cake for me so far, second to LTs and then cam. I have a feeling though that I'll say Koni 4/3 when I install them

Tick master would be a good one too.

I think full exhaust makes it more fun to drive the car. You can downshift and it sounds bad ***...jmo.

1. Bassani dual exhaust--these cars should be loud&this exhaust makes it happen nicely, all the way back from the cat. conv. pipes.
2. Koni 4/4's; strano SB's; adj.panhard; mod. lca's; GY GSD3; perf. alignment--all this together makes a 4th gen LS1 ****** fun to drive-FAST-
3. ram air/sealed air box--most SOTP mod so far for me. really woke up throttle response&5th/6th gear pulls. &made the exhaust scream above 3k rpm's

a short shifter is a must for 6spd cars&I'm looking forward to some brake upgrades&a tune next...

Nothing like hearing that big cam chopping out a true dual dumped exhaust. But I would have to say the one mod that made a huge difference is shocks and springs.

Right now I have to say LTs, but I'm sure in April when I put my stall and cam in my mind will change haha

LTs,gears, shocks and trans go. 1-2 shift at 6k is fun.

I did poly motor mounts at the same time that I did full exhaust. While I loved the new roar of the duals, I was completely shocked at how well the poly motor mounts held the engine in place. It actually improved my shifter movement quite a bit.

Im going to have to say the 4.10s were the most fun. its great to drive around in town now especially in 1st and 2nd, but i now have a 3600 stall on the way so we shall see how long the rear holds this mod. the true duals were a big bonus too!

Just make sure you get the master install kit with all new shims and bearings/axle seals, etc. It's not 100% necessary but you might as well be better safe than sorry while your in there with everything apart. Don't forget some new fluid. Also, I went with the GM 4.10's as I've heard they hold up a little better.
