What first?

I have a 99 nbm Trans Am m6 stock really besides a lid, and a vfn ws6. It has the stock 98-00 aluminum wheels on it as well.

I am debating on whether I should upgrade my wheels to nice chrome ones or get a longtube header setup with a ORY and a mail order tune first. I dont do much racing. Never at the track. Oh my current wheels are 16x8 with a 4.75 pattern.

Well which do you think you'd feel more excited about? Nice shiny wheels, or loud exhaust tones and more power?

Me personally I'd do the headers, but that's just me. Cosmetics are always fun too

Well I mean I always run the cutout open and its already pretty loud.. And I get comments on the stock wheels all the time around here :/ I would do both eventually tho. People also tell me when you get the headers you cant really feel the power difference.

Im gonna have to say exhaust. Do your research and find out what you want it to sound like. Lots of different brands and styles that are like night and day difference
