Default What should I do next

So I have a 98 SS, and all I've done to it is a SLP lid, Magnaflow cutback and NITTO 555 tires, and fixing some cosmetic stuff. I don't want to get header/cam/stall yet, just because its my daily driver. So the question is what can I do to get my car performing better. Please be patient with me, I'm pretty new at this. Thanks.

I would of thought a fast would be pointless if you didn't intend on progressing
With a cam head and headers

What is wrong with long tube headers for a daily driver? We have a great selection of LTs and going with LTs isn't going to "hurt" a daily driver. Actually it'll probably make it a lot more fun.

I would start off with the cheaper mods that you can easily gain from. Starting w/ Longtube headers(they can still be quiet with slp dual dual mufflers) and ls6 intake manifold. Next would be a stall and gears, then move on to a cam and supporting mods & of course a tune

I would really consider headers but if you are against it I would look into the Fast 92mm setup

Free mods like FRA mod, EGR delete to start, and like everybody else said, I'd really consider a set of headers. Won't hurt drivability one bit and frankly, short of a set of heads or a cam, the single biggest bang for the buck mod you'll do to your F-body.
