Id say custom tune 1st then intake and headers and updated tune or all 3 at once. Same basic mods for any LS motor. Then from there plan your cam swap and any other up grades. If you think you may go turbo skip the headers. Maybe invest in some tuning software and start tuning yourself since youre starting from a clean slate. Thats really about it. Some people swap out to a 90mm throttle body over the stock 87 for a little better throttle response, and some swap crank pulleys just like older gens to eek out every last bit of power too.
