Headers
Intake
Pulley
Cam
E85/Meth
You'll rock 700-750 RWHP easy. I'd maybe start with Intake, Pulley, Headers, and tune. When you get used to that, port your heads and get a good Cam and you'll be well into the 700s. Meth or E85 at that point is worth 50-100 RWHP, definitely worth considering. Seems a lot of people are against Meth and or E85 but they really are game changers when you're making power like this.
If you want a stockish setup then the Intake/Pulley/Tune route is up your alley. However I'd be REALLY careful about doing that on stock manifolds and cats. Headers won't make it sound stock anymore, but you do have "Stealth" exhaust mode when you need it quiet.
Big fan of the SS and on Forgestars it looks really sweet.

I think based on the info I'll start with the Pulley/Intake/Tune, and see how it feels, I was thinking about a bigger TB and port the SC, but not sure if the gains are not worth the expense?
If I end up going further then I'll do the meth, I have it on the SS.
Thanks for the input?
