to do list
get paypal account
clear corners for it
lid buy a used one off here
catback exhaust
ls6 intake
frost mail order tune
headers if you get the itch
stall converter
and now is a great time to buy springs and shocks ,some great deals on new stuff .
dont waste your time with ported throttle bodies and underdrive pullies . Save up for some texas speed headers and y pipe .
But realistically do the lid, cat back , 180 or 160 thermostat , and frost tune . those few things will wake it up a bunch and not break the bank , esp if buying the lid and catback used.

Plus isnt it nice to know that you worked on a few different parts of the car and made it a little of your own?

I somewhat agree with you, bot not 100%. I also love how a stock WS6 looks and sounds.... But in my mind, with an eleven year old car a few things will need to be changed just to make it a little more safe and perform better.

Sometimes I wish I would have left mine alone, I like the speed but also when i drive my buddys stock Ws6 i regret touching mine. maybe a Fast toys lid and cat back. But know when you make it faster the parts get expensive and stuff will break. Either way nice car and enjoy.

So my first car I ever owned was a 2000 Firebird and after I lost that car I have always wanted to own a Trans Am, Well next sunday im going to NO, LA to buy my first TA. I'm super excited and want to start getting some ideas on what I can to to this beautiful car.
It is TOTALLY stock and 100% the exact same as when it left the factory (other than tires) It has 43,500 miles on it and im looking for this to be my fun weekend project so shoot me some good ideas. Thanks guys! =D

i would work on maint. first, make sure all fluids are up to date. Get NGK spark plugs in. Then SLP Lid, Smooth Bellow, K&N Air filter. P&P TB. u can get the TB off ebay cheap. like 30$ + shipped then for nice sound purpose, TSP LT's and Sweet Thunder true duals.
