Tubular engine cradle.
SFC's.
lower springs but higher spring rate.. custom LCA's to match as well as rear pieces.
That'd eat 2 grand at least.

Adapt some bilstein B8's or something equally dumb....
Then wheels and tires.

Now that I realized it I never said what i'd do to my own car.
8K in the GP? It would never happen.
EDIT: I have came to the conclusion i'd buy me a NICE NICE LS1/T56 car. 2000 or later Camaro or T/A so it has steering wheel controls(T/A had steering controls since 93) and also the LS6 intake. Would have to have power everything, leather, and ttops. I'd probably spend all 8 grand on just the car but it would be really nice and it would satisfy me.
Keep GTP as an all year DD and do the headers that are sitting in the closet and do a homeade intake, get it tuned and call it a day.
300RWHP car for the summer when it's nice out.
200ish FWHP DD all year round to help keep the everyday wear and tear off of the LS1 car. I think I win.
Either that or I'd spend it on the white car.
Get a full L32. 1 grand?
Cam/springs etc. Another grand?
Get heads ported. Another grand?
Intercooler. Another grand?
Get a Cobra M112, strip it of the rotors. Sell the housing since it wouldn't be needed. Do an M112 hybrid. Figure another grand??
T56 swap. 2 grand?
Misc crap for whatever and a tune. yet another grand?
No money left and shatter the rearend. WIN

"lcurtizz-
Did you guys dyno tune it? I've heard of up to 50hp gains in just remapping the stock computers alone.
-@lcurtizz: Yes, it was dyno tuned. We typically see around 25-30 RWHP with the tune alone."
holy tuning batman!!!
