LTs, o/r mid-pipe and exhaust will run you a close to a grand, t-lok and gears + install will run you about 600-700 and then you can get it tuned with the remaining. So id say do all that and youd be in good shape.

ok so ceramic LTs for 329 + 169 mid-pipe = 500 bucks. a catback would have put it close to 1000 with shipping. but since he doesnt need them still figure 550 for headers and a mid-pipe.

no TB, he would have to port the upper intake to make it work.

The throttle plate will hit the inner part of the upper intake manifold unless you port it. you should actually lose a little power.
