The first place to start is always air in air out. CAI and headers good custom tune. You can always add more after that.

Is this ls3 or l99

It comes with instructions and parts so all you need is a jack+jack stands, beer, common sense, and an idiot friend that can help you for no financial compensation whatsoever.

Ah, well I suggest doing it yourself. Hell of a learning experience and it forces you to build a tool collection which is always handy. Everything you order will come with install instructions and if you ever get stuck there is a install video for almost everything on youtube. Google it or you could even ask for specifics on here.. in the bolt ons section.

If you are reasonably mechanically inclined, you could do headers, exhaust, and cold air induction yourself. Just follow the instructions.

If all you want to do is make it louder, a simple muffler delete (cheap and quick at any muffler shop) will accomplish that.

If you want some extra performance to go with the sound,
CAI, headers/exhaust and a tune will get you off to a good start. After that, it just a case of how much money are you willing to spend. Spend a little time in the bolt on section and you'll find plenty of stuff you can do to your car.

If you want to save the warranty but still get rid of the AFM, search for the threads on the Range AFM Disable. Sounds like a good product. Going to order one first thing after ordering the SS.
