A little more PUSH for my camaro

I'm wanting to get a little more bang for my 2012 V-6 and not sure which direction to head.. I have read a few threads about intake and exhausts and what not, but i really wanna punch this one in the mouth.. My bank account not so much.. With that being said, what would be my best options to maximize potential in the least amount of time...?

Eh, what the heck, lemme go get a Turbo

Feel free to let me know what I need to do to smoke that mustang next time

Around $5000-7000 from what I've seen on here.

Upfront, about the same as trading up to an SS, which allows you to keep your warranty and durability as a bonus. More in the long run due to the cost of stuff breaking.

Well like many other v6 owners, I already have the car and don't want to trade it on for the simple fact of going into yet another loan.. So I'm trying to see which mods I can put on my vehicle to help her go just a bit fast and a little quicker..

Exhaust?
Air intake?
Performance chip?

I would like to start with those three listed above.. Can anyone help me with which brands are best quality for the best price?

Getting the intake is def a quick route for some added hp and the cheapest but I think I just enjoy the sound it makes everytime I put the pedal down. If ur not lookin to spend thousands on turbos or superchargers just get some exhaust, intake, and headers.

i think performance chips void your powertrain warranty.

as someone else stated there aren't headers out for the 2012s due to the way the engine is set up. there's one exhaust pipe coming out each side of the engine rather than the 3 or 4 in the 10s & 11s
