i thought you were about to say that your car was completely BUILT and was running out of mods that increase hp, but yea on a completely stock lt1 you can/should do what these guys said, these cars respond well to mods.

if you do a good tune up before you start modding then youll feel more of a SOTP improvement, and you should be running with stock LS1s with those mods ...youll never have to worry about stangs though, you could pull two plugs out and put two cars on a stock GT in the quarter (not that i would advise doing that !)
