Default What Should I do next?

Hey, So I fixed the plenum and modded the manifold. What should I do next?
I'm thinking about headers, 4.10, 3.92 gears or an sct tuner. Whats your opinion.

I'd go for headers for sure. I'd get the tuner before the gears. That way when you put the gears in you can change your ratio right away.

dang, I don't wanna be argumentative, but:

gears.. makes life easier on your tranny, and helps gas mileage 'round town.. single best thing for low end..

SCT.. the reduction/removal of Torque Management is worth it all by itself.. The shift points being moved is nice too.. then, the engine itself will be a lot peppier..

Headers- but these will only help you if you go with LT's and rip the factory Y off and THROW IT as far as you can.. Shorty Headers aren't worth it in my opinion.. they sound good, they WILL bump you a little- but if you cut out the factory Y and replace it with a JEGS or Magnaflow Offroad, you'll see A LOT more than headers... Long tubes, different story.. these will net you some good and measurable gains, but by there very nature you'll lose the factory Y.. it's the poorly designed Y that causes these trucks issues..
