The torque arm. With your current mods, you should be seeing 11's. 15 more horsepower with an LS6 intake is insignificant compared to how hard your car launches with a good torque arm.
I run a Spohn with all the bells and whistles. But do your own research on what brand you want.

My opinion is that you should get the TQ arm hands down, with what you have done so far. If you had 1000hp and you couldnt get it to the ground, it would be worthless. Work on your traction a little at a time.

I, for instance, get one mod for the HP gain then my next mod is for traction, then HP, then traction, and so on. This works well if you are on a limited budget such as I am. Good Luck. Oh and BTW, you can't go wrong with Sphon.
