Default What else can I get as far as bolt-ons?

I'm planning immediately after Xmas to get these bolt-ons. Am I missing anything as far as bolt-ons go?

Corsa
FLP LT's with Race cats
ASP Pulley
Welds w/ET streets
FTRA
NGK TR55or6's w/wires

Planning on a Hammer cam during the summer sometime and will get PCM program so don't need HPP3.

Anything else as far as basic bolt-ons that I need? I feel I'm forgetting something.

Thanks.

Rick

Maybe change the rear gears, but I'd see how it works without them first.

HAHAHA...supercharger has been crossing my mind. <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0"> But want to go NA for awhile then I might breakdown and do S/C in a few years. Like to be H/C and all bolt-ons by end of '02.

Nittos? Blah..maybe as my everyday tire. ET Streets are on my After-Xmas list. <img src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">

Well I am not sure if you have one or not, but a lid is definately something you want. A catback is must, again assuming you don't have any of these since you don't show a sig. These 2 should be the 2 very first mods done to an LS1. Getting it breathing better, and then you're in business for the next level of modding.

BTW, if you have an SS(assuming you do by the name), save your money and just do the FRA mod. I am not knocking Phillip Reddy at all, but the FTRA did NOTHING for my SS, and only made it run hotter. If you don't have a ram air car, the FTRA may be a good choice. If not, save your 150 bucks and take 5 minutes to do the FRA.

Everything else looks pretty good. I ran 12.3's/114ish mph with less mods than that in a 98 M6, stock gears. Good luck

I have my sig up in the original post. You can't see it?

I will probably run my Welds and ET streets on the street often but still switch them out when I'm not being lazy. lol Takes me 10 mins to go from 1 side of town to the other and none of the streets have major pot holes so I should be ok.

I would do a 4400vig converter, and some suspension work...HALS in the front...etc etc...

STB, LCA's, SFC's, PHB, driveshaft Loop....

Just little things to keep the tires planted.. <img src="gr_stretch.gif" border="0">
