What you have to do is a little at a time where she wont know where the money goes. 
You can do anything any other LS motor can from pistons, to cam, to turbo,
roller rockers, headers, electric cutout, tune, CAI, what ever so take your time and have fun.

Get an exhaust system the chock these cars down they need to breath
Magnaflow and Flowmaster makes a kit and a few others. I limke the Magnaflow 100 stainless Steel and a nice growl. The Flowmasters are a little louder.

The insurance is cheaper on the monte and the gas mileage is a lot better with the LS4 with active fuel management compared to the LS2. I'm not sure the climate you live in, but the RWD GTO is impossible to drive in the snow/ice. The monte is a better, all-around, more practical car. I got a steal of a deal on my '04 Dale Jr. car.. I could've bought two of my cars for the price of a newer 5.3 ss monte lol. You gotta weight the cost out, because at the end of the day, it's all about the American green
