I'm leaning towards the cam since i got my stall and locker now.. but the thought of putting on a edelbrock intake manifold with a custom elbow and a 85mm TB sounds to tempting not to go ahead and start working on collecting towards getting.

A stand alone cam will help you breath much better than a stand alone intake. Kinda like giving someone with asthma meds to open up their airways or sticking them in front of a fan hoping to cram more air into a restircted airway.
Now if you do both of them together...LOOK OUT!!!

I wouldnt think that you would need that intake with the factory cam because it does not make power where the factory intake TQ curve drops off, I hope that makes sense. With a cam swap however depending on duration you will benefit from the new intake so def. get the cam first.

Thats what i was thinking earlier about also. i might end up trying to do that if my temptations dont give in once i start ordering some of the parts. My warranty is still good for right now so i figured for me to do be able to do this i'm just going to end up buying one part at a time and start stacking parts in the garage and when i'm ready put everything on hopefully in one full weekend.. .Cam, Intake, Tune, stall, etc.

Magnacharger makes a nice intake as well.

I'm going to stay N/A. Otherwise i would be strongly urging myself for a sts turbo kit rather then a supercharger.
