lt headers, xpipe, Steeda pullies, t/a, plenum, tb. gears, or you can do some suspension work springs, control arms, subframes.

This would compleltely transform your car for about $2000:
1) Suspension:
SFC's/ Springs/ Shocks & Struts/ Rear Control Arms
2) Exhuast
Mid-pipe (X or H)
3) Performance
Pulleys, new shifter

I would say save up for a supercharger

If not:

-Suspension work like:springs, shocks, CC plates, swaybars
-Exhaust: LT's, midpipe

Oh, and gears!

I could say go both ways...
On one side i would say save the other 2g's and buy a supercharger, but we all know that the initial 4 grand is just the tip of the iceburg. I know it can be safely done for this much, and the gains are great, but you have to make that decision. Im all for power and the supercharger will get you there, but make sure you have money on the side IN CASE something were to go freakishly wrong with the motor.
On the other side I would just say do the exhaust thing, some LCA's and gears. Oh yea and a new shifter prolly wouldnt hurt either. Good luck with whatever you choose.
