If you already have a TRUE cold air intake and the exhaust the next step is a universal high flow catalytic converter. Not too pricey and good performance.Better tires can help traction, meaning better numbers, but with each bump in grip, you usually take a hit on mileage. Once the exhaustand intake are opened up the options get pretty limited. An electronic engine programmer (hand-held type) help, but wont do as good of a job if you actually have a place tune it. But you can modify the hand helds, where as if you make more changes to the engine you have to have it re-tuned with a one time tuning place.

A larger throttle body, or throttle body spacer might help, if there is any made for your engine.

The transmission on your engine is the same on many V6's, and there are companies out there that make shift kits for them. These will improve times as well.

Nitrous is a no-brainer, but you have to accept the fact that the transmission on your car is good for up to like 330 hp/ft-lbs torque. The intake and exhaust probably add 10-15 over the stock 303, even a entry level nitrous kitis going tooverpower the transmission, and it won't last as long. Also, don't even think about a dry kit, the most economical kits out there are wet-dry combination, spraying nitrous and extra fuel at the same time, and can reach numbers as big as 125 hp added. Lots of fun, but don't expect the transmission to last long with that much more power.

SS, yes, that is what you would call a nearly universal V8 "wet" kit. Basically it just injects an even amount of fuel and nitrous to keep your engine from getting too lean and detonating.

Thing to remember is your transmission isn't rated for an extra 125 HP, especially when it hits the engine as suddenly as nitrous would. if you do this, be sure to get the GM performance parts high performance differential which helps eliminate torque steer. This will increase performance even without nitrous, and help prevent that pull to the left when you really get on the gas.

This universal kit is adjustable from 35-75 hp shot (4 and 6 cyl.) or 75-125 hp (8 cyl.) for any multi-point EFI 4, 6 or 8 cylinder out there. NOS designed the kit for Sport Compacts, Mini Trucks, and Euro Tuners that do not have application specific systems. The kit includes NOS 'Soft Plume' Fogger Nozzle, a 10 lb. bottle, Hi-Flo bottle valve, -4AN line from the bottle to the Super Power Shot solenoid and -3AN line from solenoid up to the nozzle. Also includes necessary mounting hardware, wiring and switches. Bottle shipped empty. $581.99

I'll have the link for the differential in a minute

Improved differential: http://www.gmperformanceparts.com/Pa...input=88958682
88958682
NEW
Torsen Differential (not shown)
• Used in GM 4T65E Racing’s FWD drag racing programs
• Tested to 900+ HP
• In drag-race style, straight-line acceleration runs, this
results in a close to ideal 50/50 power split to both
drive wheels
• In cornering, while accelerating out of a turn, the Torsen
biases power to the outside wheel, reducing insidewheel
spin
• Provides constant and infinitely variable drive
• Power is transferred automatically without the use of
normal friction
• Extremely strong and durable, since it is gear operated
• No plates or clutches that can wear out
• Comes with new pinion gears already loaded
Now, keep in mind, this is probably not going to support 900 HP with a stock trans. Just the differential is going to support more power.
