pretty sure i just got done building a 5.9, and the thread can be found right on the main page of the general discussion section...

search my friend, and you will be quite surprised on what you may, or may not find.

You could do a tuner.. SCT is like 265.. That will be the best you can do for that money.. Or a tune-up along with the plenum and cat... That will be around 300 or a little more... Other than that there isnt much else.
