What route would you guys take from here
Short of Supercharging or N02, what should be my next move
I have a 2002 GT Auto with
Borla Stinger catback
SLP catted X pipe
Accufab 75mm tb
Accufab plenum
MAC CAI
Diablosport predator
4.10 gears
Mickey Thompson ET streets
so whats next? perhaps some LT headers, Stage 1 Cams, Stall converter, P&P heads? what would be the aprox costs of parts + install or what ones could i do in my garage?

id say headers or cams prolly. both give you fair hp...and both give you a phenomenal increase in the sound factor.

Save the head porting for AFTER the cams and espcially the LTs.
BTW, your midpipe will need to be replaced as well.
also a VERY good time (headers) to do a clutch install. Gonna have to remove the LTs to pull it anyways, good time to get it done.
Other small things:
Upper/lower control arms
SUBFRAMES
u/d pulleys (if no blower is in sight)

my slp x pipe is the one that is modular and can be used with Lt's (well at least SLP Lt's) and i have an auto so no clutch for me!...................im guessing that with cams, Lt's P&P etc a dyno tune will be necessary
