Leave your intake on. Port & polish your T.B. A cam would make a world of difference, but then you'll need a tune. Put a C.A.I. on it. Some gears and larger brakes would help out with the larger rims.

porting and polishing your throttle body will not give you any noticeable horsepower, throttle response will be better. an ls6 intake would be better with a cam to match. but to fit that intake it will require allot of work.
