My budget formula for my last two Camaros was:
1. Shocks - $400 for a set of Bilsteins. Unlike some mods, you can feel the HUGE difference every mile.
2. Exhaust - $100 to $400. A nice mod that you can feel and hear. Either a full catback or just a muffler it a good thing.
3. Lid - $100. Enough has been mentioned above.
4. Appearance - $200 for a few silly things like inlays, clear corners, etc., just to personalize your car.

i would do a lid ($100), a ported t/b ($100), a good flowing catback ($400), and spend the remaining on suspension mods to help gain some traction i.e. a better torque arm and probably a panhard bard and lca's

I would definitely do headers - you can get chrome BBKs with ORY for $369, lid, catback (Magnaflow has a pretty nice tone and is stainless steel, on sale right now at ws6store for $384) and tune.

the cutout is usually installed somewhere between the y pipe and the muffler, allowing you to bypass the rest of the exhaust system. this equals more power typically, as well as the ability to **** everyone off within a quarter mile.
i've seen a handful of people run the factory catback,(to keep things quiet), then they just uncap the cutout at the track( wahla, no more exhaust restriction...)
tracking?
