Stall that beech first. You will gain more with a stall, with traction, than you will get with LTs. Yeah, there' s no denying the sounds will be A LOT better with LTs, but, if you want gain, your stall is a better bet.
Just remember, go big or go home.

My plan:
1.Nitrous....100 dry shot...100 hp = 1 sec quicker
2.Stall...3800 plus cooler and tune = 1/2 sec quicker
3.headers....pacesetters uncoated with y pipe.= 3/10 tenths quicker
Maximum go for least dough at each writing of the check.

As far as your question, if a stall is just a mod to up horses, i'd definitely go with headers because the sound of the car is a world of difference.

A ''stall'' is a high performance torque converter for automatic transmissions

if you get LTs you will have to install them, then get at least a y pipe (my brothers car had pacesetters, a y pipe and then stock catback on it and it sounded nice) if not getting a whole cat back or true dual set up, then you need to tune out your front O2 sensors and maybe even your EGR
my suggestion would be coated pacesetters, TSP y pipe and stock catback, get a tune to fix your O2s and enjoy your slightly faster better sounding car.

If you tune out the front o2's your car will not run at all

You Will Need More then $600 for a Nice Set of Good Headers.. Also you Highly Recommend $500 Tune..
As for the TC you will See More of a Notice off The Line & From a ROLL No Dout. Also the Coast of Tuning you will Need. Will Coast About $300 LESS
My VOTE is go With the STALL baby!!

The TC will cost you to have it installed, where as the headers and y-pipe can be done in the driveway with friends.

A 100 Dry shot will not make you go 1 full second quicker. With a NX 150 wet I went from 12.8 to 11.9. I dont see a 100 dry doing that.

Stall first PERIOD. Trust me, that's the way you want to go. Don't get anything under 3600. I have a 4000 stall, daily driven. And you don't NEED drag radials with a stall. You don't want headers without the rest of the exhaust system so keep that in mind. Headers will not give you anywhere near the difference as a good stall will. Did I mention that you want to get a stall first?
