Either one will set you up fine later on down the road. Just make sure you do both for maximum gains.
Some will say they'd rather go suspension upgrade first.

True about the suspension. What do you do with your car? I like improving the road manners and handling, and while I don't have exhaust upgrades yet I do really like my Koni's! Swapping the stock shocks with some good ones (Bilstein, Koni, etc.) make a big difference in how the car drives.

I don't know where or who around here has the equipment needed to make my car get max gains. Bilsteins would be nice to have. I think I'm going to do that later on down the road. The guy that had it before me put Eibach springs on it, so I don't know if that's good or bad. It's car my daily driver, but maybe see the strip when it's not my DD anymore lol. As for changing the gears... can I do it now on the stock rear end or should I wait until I have a stonger one put on?

I would get a ls6 intake first,no tune needed.when it comes time for a tune you can get a mail order tune from frost,do a search .when you do long tubes replace your motor mounts at the same time.

LTs + full exhaust will give much bigger gains on a stock car than an LS6 intake alone. Do the exhaust first, if those are the two options.

I would love to get duals. I was looking around and I was thinking of getting TSP's X-pipes. Thanks for informing me that I don't need a tune right away. I live like 40 miles away from Fayetteville and Springdale, so I'm up there like once or twice a week.
