Now you should go with computer tuning. Unless you are going to do internal mods soon. Tuning should be the last thing you do, otherwise you will be spending $$$ everytime you do a mod. I've heard good things about Ed Wright. I'd say you could unleash at least 15hp with an effecient dyno tune. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

You could add FTRA, SLP CAI, or SSRA.

A good shifter!(if m6) <img border="0" alt="[driving]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_driving3.gif" />

Maybe a cooler T-stat.

The short belt really isn't what I would call a bolt on. Thats not something you wanna run around with all the time.

Other than that your list is solid.

Sorry i forgot to mention MTI tuning, pro 5.0 w/short stick, NGK plugs and GMPP wires. So now I guess its time to go into the engine <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I have not heard good things about GMPP wires. I reccomend MSD or Magnacore.
