well.. what are you looking for in your car?
-Better straight line performance?
-better handling?
-better looks?
-all of the above?
Since you in this section im guessing your looking for HP. Get a fast or ls6 intake manifold and if thats not enough go for a cam package... 224/224 cam would wake up the performance but would also be very streetable w/ a tune.

Why Pacesetters?

why not get the QTP's... they will get you another 10HP and 10TQ EASILY. search for WS6FirebirdTA00 up here and look under his dyno section... look for the QTPs that he installed versus his pacesetters

I would say LS6 intake and pulley instead of the 3.73s. LS6 is a given, and the pulley is nice if you don't run a big system. An overdrive alternator pulley is good insurance, and still allows decent gains. Investments in the rear end however, short of putting in a 12-bolt or 9 inch, are probably a waste IMO.
