Depending on your year: LS6 intake/ported TB or FAST 102/NW TB.

Imo, it depends on what your current intake manifold is, what your modification goals are, and what you're willing to spend.

Mine is a 2000 so non LS6. Looking at a fast 92/nick williams combo now. Price isn't an option since I'm just starting to save up

My next mod would be gears if you haven't already upgraded them.

The FAST 92 w/NW-92 TB is a excellent choice. Keep in mind it won't make the power of the FAST 102, but the overall cost and plug-n-play fitment is noticeably better.

So is this going to more of a corner carver, or 1/4 mile car, and are there any other aftermarket modification done to the car ?

Finish your intake/air flow. Ported tb and ls6 intake. A quick and cheap 15+hp gain.

Lid and exhaust were the first mods. It's an occasional drag strip car with a few street miles in between.
