Default what to do with a new car?

Hows it goin everybody. I just bought a 1999 z28 convertible and i love the car. It has 118,000 miles on her and the trans and engine are still tight and strong. What i was gonna ask is what are sum relatively easy mods i can do to the engine to make it run with a little more step? Its all stock under there so i can do pretty much whatever. Im definately looking into getting an cold air intake system but still not sure which to settle on. I open to all ideas

if you have the $$ do slp flo pac, if not just get the slp lid. also look into doing headers y pipe and exhaust. I think the 99s you can do an ls6 intake manifold mod as well.

i appreciate it. definately looking into the slp flowpac..... that seems to be the more popular one. and about the intake manifold mod, you think that'd make a big difference? One more thing...the SS hoods with the functional hood scoop, do those make a significant difference bcuz if not, im gonna wait on a functional hood

dont pay for the hood. the air hits the front of the car then goes to the windshield right over the scoop. for me I did catback, lid, and next up is headers and y pipe and pulleys.

has anyone tried those little supercharger fans that fit in the intake tube? the videos and stuff say they are good n' all but of course they are going to brag on their product.
