Default 2017 5.3 power time maybe?

So I just sold my evo. Leaves me with some extra $.

One thing I am considering is adding some power to my crab.

So what I'm thinking is either put a blower on it, or do cam, afm delete and long tubes. Maybe a converter. Which would you do first?

Tuning is no issue, but I won't be doing it all at once.

Lucas English or Aaron O'Neal will probably be doing the magic.

completely undecided.

I'm a turbo guy so procharger would be high on my list, but magnusson carries powertrain warranty.
