I'd recommend to get the rockers, tstat, plugs.

From there I need to know a bit more of your setup.  Did you just get the U-bend delete or did you get the downpipe?  If it was just he ubend, see if you can sell it and get a 3" downpipe.

For programming, once I learn it myself, we can probably meet sometime and I'll take care of it.  I goto Indiana all the time to visit a friend.  This would be just a jump away.  Maybe hook up with Keegan and share some knowledge.

Welcome to MCF Mike!

Not much can be done with that engine.  You can do a home make Cold Air Intake or Fender Well Intake.  The U-Bend delete will help.

Exhaust is good, but you can change the muffler.

Other than that not much.

Your best bet if you want it performance is to swap to an L67 engine.
