My wife got us spanked by a SS Camaro today, that sucked. In what order do I need to make mods, right now I just have flowmasters and a K&N filter. What do I need to do next? I plan on a supercharger later on so I dont want to put any parts on that I will have to replace later on because of s/c. What can I start doing now to get some more HP? Any help will be appreciated.

4.10s too steep with a S/C... get 3.73s so you won't have to change them out.

So....

Sorry dude, but unless you plan on getting into the engine, adding forced induction now, or nitrous. You're going to continue to get spanked by LS-1 SS's. Gears and pulleys right now might make the spanking less severe, but you're still gonna be looking at tail lights when he hits 3rd.

Now...if it was an LT-1 SS, you should damn near be taking him now and you'd better teach the wife you to power shift if that's the case.
