Default Basic and Easy upgrades to make power

Hey I was hoping that I could get some good advice on what to get to make some basic and easy power. Like Intake manifold, exhaust, header, ect? What are the main things to get to get the HP up a lil more? Please list from experience what you have used and what you though about it.

Start with the basics (if you havent already) a free flowing exhaust system (+header) and intake (of quality manufacturing recomended) will give you a good foundation, a pully kit is also relativly inexpensive compared to cams, ect..

clutch kit and flywheel will not increase your hp, it will only help deliever all your power more efficently. Most basic upgrade you can do is improve your air flow.

To the OP: When I had my LS I didnt do H/E and the only reason I did intake was cause it was like 20 bucks...Instead I bought a b16 transmission, a used Dry kit for 150 bucks...On spray I was mid to lower 14's...Best N/A was a 14.89 with a 93 trap...umm lets just say I wiped the floor with any I/H/E LS

Yeah these little bolt ons wont add much... but will allow for a better breathing car so if you plan on a build it might be a good place to start although it may not add alot of power now it will help later...
