Look into nitrous. You really will be disappointed with any bolt-on to an ls if youre not FI. Or you could look into going LSvtec.....

Um dont think any of those will actually add hp, the manifold will probably only add alittle top end but take away tq. I had a skunk2 on my ls and was very disappointed. Take the cash and get a b16 head for cheap and call it a day until you boost

get a nice set of cams and a nice shot of nitrous(75) on a ls will feel great and get you up to sti's and evo's but will do damage in the long run

umm no. Nitrous will not cause damage if done properly.

whatever you do......if you go nitrous and miss gears you will most likely blow it up.....and yes it will be bad in the long run but i am sure your not going to spray at every car you come past or at all stop lights it will be fine
