Couple questions

Okay I'm a little lost right now as to where I want to go with my car next.
A friend says throw some DRs on it and take her to the track.
I was thinking PCM tune or
cam w/ rockers and springs.
Then another friend pointed out that making the most of the power I have by getting it to the wheels better with some suspension work may be the way to go right now. Susp setup is still stock.
I'll have about a grand in a month or two that I can play with.
Other things of note:
I was told by a guy doing a diagnostic on it that my PCM is messin up, and needs replaced, so I would need a new one, and a tune, if I went that way. Other than running a lil rich tho I don't notice anything right now. And I do want streetability in mind.
What would you guys go with on that budget with what you see in my sig? Even if its not something I listed up above, need some ideas/suggestions by someone with more experience after this point than I do. You know, getting to the point where I can **** something up if I rush it lol.

If you do the cam and rockers, you will then need a custom PCM tune. During the PCM tune, the programmer will be able to determine if something is wrong with the PCM. See how well everything works together with the LT engines, all your problems are now solved.
