Getting LS1 power out of a LT1 with bolt ons?

So i got a few dollars saved up from basic and all that and i want to play with the car a little. Im thinking headers because my goal is to become as fast as the LS1's. I already have an SLP CAI, and a Hooker super comp cat back system. Im thinking some LT headers would be a good way to top it off and get me those low mid-low 13's?? I could be totally dreaming i dont know so does anyone have some input or sugestions? I dont wanna do engine work the car is still a baby.

Headers, mail-order tune, rockers, electric water pump, CAI will put you at or above a stock LS1.

I wouldn't say all the above is really needed. A good full exhaust, CAI, and a strong running car will put you in LS1 range. With the addition of a tune, rockers, EWP, you should be dominating LS1s.
