Is there anymore info, like auto, manual, if auto what gears?
Cold Air tube- Check Lingenfelter, I picked mine up for $120 on sale
Long tubes coated- Pacesetter is the cheapest and the quality is alot better than it was
Cat back exhaust or have true duels custom built
If its an auto, pick up a 2800 stall, and if you have 2.73 gears, swap them out for something better
If you have a manual, you can get 4.10's if you dont mind the gas milage drop
These few mods should have you running low 13's and maybe 12.9's with great traction

I would do a cam (any one that you feel is right for you, radical or not), that with the valvetrain upgrades to suppourt it will be around $500-$600. I would get gears (3.73's if auto, 4.10's if manual) about $200 - $400 installed, a CAI of your choice, $100-$200 used or new, Headers and a catback, the remaining money will have been spent. With this you will get a performance upgrade and good reliability to go with it. If you play your cards right you can get a tune to go with it.
