Default Mods list, any suggestions?

I have a 1998 Autotrans and looked at some of the advice given to others on mods so i made a list of things, i just was wondering if i could get some suggestions/feedback.

CAI: BBK, Purchased

Exhaust:
-Flowmaster: ForceII with Y-Pipe
-Hooker: Cat-Back (Dunno if it comes with Mufflers or w/e)
-Pypes: Y-Pipe, by Pypes

Pulley: ASP 25% from Autobadges

Anything else vital to performance, but doesnt require an overhaul?

I believe that's highly debatable.
