Default Need sugestions for future mods....

Ok so once i get my car running correctly (which will hopefully be soon) i want to know which way i can go with my mods. My mods right now are ported stock heads,f-303 cam,equal length headers,2 1/2 flowmaster exhaust,upper and lower typhoon intake manifold,MSD blaster coil,8mm motorsport plug wires,acccufab fuel pressure regulator, rebuilt worldclass t-5 tranny w/ pro 5.0 shifter,eibach drag springs,weld in frame connectors, 5 lug w/ 4 wheel disc brakes,3.55 POSI rearend. So i know a new MAF would help alot, i'm also thinking an e-cam but what other basic mods could i do to get some extra performance?

cold air intake, 65mm throttle body, egr, upgrade maf, downgrade cam to ftw stage 1, underdrive pulleys, upgrade gears if you want, etc.

also, suspension mods, subframe connectors, etc.

Forgot i haven't updated that list, i just recently put in a cold air intake, i have a 70mm TB i think, i just put a spacer in for the EGR. The car came with most of the mods thats why i forget some of them, it has subframe connectors, and drag shocks. What other suspension mods could i do, springs and sway bars?

suspension mods are endless. Don't forget about torque box reinforcements

upper control arms
lower control arms
tubular k member
tubular a arms
struts
shocks
springs
coil over setup's
sway bars
bump steer kits
etc etc etc

I could easily spend 3 grand on suspension parts lol

My next mod would be to move off of the island.

Why you wanting to go from an F cam to an E cam? Thats kinda going to wrong direction isnt it? I know the F cam is kinda loud, but its not that bad....
