2/4 drop, lightweight 18's or 20's, Detroit True-trac or Auburn LSD in the rear with 4.10 gearing all around, true custom grind comp cams, STS twin turbo setup, ported heads, forged internals, cal-tracs or dump the leaf springs and go with a triangulated 4-link, big brake upgrade on the front and modify the rear to accept the stock front discs, built trans, upgraded tq converter, '08 sport seats, custom HID retrofits, Alpine type R components (front)/coaxials (rear), 2x Alpine type R 10's or 12's in removable boxes, PDX amps, JL Cleansweep (or similar unit), Undercover tonneau (or something else light and easily removable but secure), full center console (the seat is too small to be of any use IMO), a clean body kit (something like the SRT rams perhaps).

*Disclaimer: list is not necessarily complete and subject to change on a whim

A few to start

4:10 gears
cams
e-fan
yeah, and a real 4" suspension lift. with the body lift, that would give me 7" of lift.
maybe some aftermarket wheels
