Default 06 GT MOD HELP

I just recently bought a new 06 GT Conv., w/auto Transmission. So far Ive raced 2 05 GT's, 2 06 GT's and a 80' Malibu w/Camshaft. Ive won all of them with the malibu being the closest and all the GT's ive raced are sticks and mine just tears them up. Mine is PURE stock and i just don't get why im killing them when they are all hitting their shifts and everything. But ima bout to make some mods and i sort of need some help with it. Now im looking into some pulleys, motion plates, Throttle Body, Cold Air Intake, Injectors, Xcalibrator 2 Tuner, and the Shaker Hood System. I want to do some other stuff to the engine as well but im not sure what. If you could help me at all with brands and somewhere i can look at some parts please help me out. Also help with other stuff i could possibly do to the engine cuz im not sure on what else i wanna do. Any help would be appreciated.

Why not just blow it? You will want to eventually anyway! There are also some sweet turbo systems available.

No need to put new injectors in with the mods you have listed, the stockers will do just fine and there is no horsepower to be gained unless you are running out of fuel on the top end.

The shaker hood scoops use the stock air box, so it would take some fabrication to use a CAI with a shaker. You need a sealed box to feed the air to from the shaker and most of the CAI's use an open element behind a heat shield.
