Cheap/Free Mods?

I have been looking all over the place for free or relatively inexpensive mods for my 2000 Camaro. I have already descreened and ported my MAFH, the EGR mod, and the free whisper lid mod too! I was just wondering if there were any other mods. If anyone can inform me more, please let me know!!! Thanks!!!!

Ive done the Free Ram air cutout...I guess the TB bypass is all thats left, I wish there were some other things to help me out a bit, Im unemployed right now bcuz of an injury so free and cheap is the only way for me! Oh well, guess I have to wait for some funds to flow in!

cheap as in under 100$ hmm SLP BlackWing Air Lid, and strut bar, both under 100$ and a good low budget start...160* thermostat is around 50$ and smooth bellows is only 60$...lots of little parts that that can make small significant changes

I have all of those except the thermostat, which I need one...

I dont know how many times I need to explain this on F-body boards, but 160* thermostats do not help.

oh, Ithought they would help with over heating while standing at a light or in traffic, no hp gains (common sense)...I know the stock 195* thermo doesnt help...so why do they have them then?

They have them sticker sheets at auto parts store, Rumor has is you gain 5hp per inch of sticker. It might be worth your while doing some research on how much it helps the aerodynamics of the car.
