If you want to make just a little more power, downpipe/plog or headers and a smaller pulley.

List of things you don't need:

Tune, intake, throttle body spacer, catback etc.
Yeah Matt, about that transmission... Mine is shot and needs to be rebuilt or replaced. I'm leaning towards a rebuild. If I understand right, I can use the stock transmission with future mods including headers, intake, tune, 3.4, ported blower housing, right? According to the safely modding your 3800 thread, I could even install 1.9's or a VS cam and still be okay with the stock transmission, did I understand that right? I probably won't do the cam or rockers, but i'd rather have my transmission rebuilt in such a way to give me the option if I want it. Thanks.
