The basic mods are
1. Pulley 4# or 6#
2. Diablo Preditor or SCT tuner
3. FTVB valve body to firm up the shifts (read spin 1, 2, and 3rd)

These mods will put you around 400 rwhp.

Welcome to FTE! Make sure to post lightning questions in the lightning forum.

As for mods, sigma pretty much covered them. You can also port your stock blower to get better flow as well as replacing the existing intake and exhaust to make everything flow better.
