Arrow $1000...what to buy???

i'm gonna be gettin my hands on $1000 soon and i'm wondering what to buy to get the most bang for my buck...or get the most stuff for $1000...i want the granatelli 200mph gauges for one thing, but i might wait on that if i can get enough stuff for the motor to make a difference...i was thinking:
SLP air box lid
SLP MAF sensor
Skip shift elim.

I wouldn't worry about the MAF until you have headers, cam or heads.

After a bunch of suspension mods I'd go with ECM programming. Most likely Predator or LS1 Edit. But everybody is gonna say to do something else. Do what you want.

FRA is free ram air. Where the air is sucked up from infront of the radiator underneath the car... 10 times better over stock setup. SLP, fast toys and some other places has them.
