I bought my 1999 WS6 last July, and have loved it, but my grin from laying into it slowly faded into a dull "MEH...".

So in September, I threw on a UMI strut tower bar, SLP lid, ORY, and LM1 cat-back. Went to the track, master cylinder decided it wanted to be elsewhere. Then I put in a Tick AMS and it's good to go.

I bought an Eibach Pro-Kit last week, and the springs will be installed hopefully sometime this week if a tech at work gets free time, but what should I do next?!? Preferably something

 

Track down a ls6 intake, throw some long tube headers on there, tune, set of some nice drag radials, maybe some minor weight reduction like getting rid of the heavy steel spare tire and jack if it's still in there. Decent start right there

 

Right on! I took out the spare and jack a couple weeks ago. Not sure how I feel about a tire on the car right now because of the junk a** 10 bolt.

A friend of mine recently blew the **** out of his LS1, snag the intake assembly? Hmm....

A thought was the OBX headers with ORY and high flow cats, and a tune from Norris. A handful of respectable cars I follow on IG use that eBay kit, and I was thinking of giving them a shot.

 

You want more power or what exactly? Have a budget?

 

Power would be nice, but power doesn't reflect an ET. Would something beneficial for the long run be better, like a torque arm?

 

/Grab the LS6 intake and the Buy a set of Speed Eng 1 7/8 headers and ORP and a Magnaflow exhaust.

 

I agree with the previous recommendations; get your intake taken care of (LS6 intake, lid if you don't already have one), then your exhaust (1 7/8" long tubes would be nice). That's gonna get your car sounding pretty mean with the LM catback and all. After that, tune it or wait until you get a cam installed and tune it after that. The cam should definitely bring that **** eating grin back. Good luck!

 

Ls6 intake then some long tubes, and eventually get you a nice cam and tune you will love the difference.

 

If you are looking for a better et at the dragstrip lowering springs are not going to help. If you are looking for better handling the prokit is mediocre at best, and the rear springs are known to sag. On the same note as handling, lowering on the stock shocks or cheap replacement shocks are not going to do you any favors, the car will feel like crap...

 

Does it have sub frame connectors?

If not that's the #1 priority.

These uni-bodies flex even under stock power. Start putting more tq to the rear and it's not a matter of if but when. 2pt are good for track & straight line, 3 pt are best over all.


Next would be some LCA's and a good torque arm to get rid of the wheel hop.
