Question Any "quick" MODs I need to do before dyno tune?

I am going to take my car to norris to have it dyno tunned weekend after next and was wondering if there were any mods that were on the cheaper side that I sould try and do before I go. I am going to install a 160* thermostat as soon as it comes in. I was thinking mabye gears? Here is a list of my mods.

PERFORMANCE: Jet Hot headers/off road Y-pipe,Direct flow air lid,Ported throttle body,Taylor wires,NGK plugs,Flowmaster cat back, PRO 5.0 short throw shifter,Descreend MAF,Free ram air,WS6 lower air box,!EGR,!AIR,K&N air filter,Fernco bellows, TB bypass.

Take it from someone who has it, it doesn't flow well at all. When the cutout is open, their is HUGE difference in power. A definite SOTP diifference.
