Personally, I would do the shifter and programmer.. Just my opinion.. Headers would be nice, but then you have to think of the o2 sensors, the cats..I mean you just had the exhaust done....maybe give it awhile and do the shifter and programmer.....

you don't "need" a new MAF. it will work with what you have. aftermarket MAFs seem to be fraught with problems in tuning them. as a matter of fact if you just want to remove the restriction, remove the MAF altogether and go to a speed density tune. as to hand programmers, for minor mods like exhaust, intake, headers they're "OK". you may be leaving a few ponies on the table as they are generic tunes that are a bit conservative. if you think you're going to go farther in your mods get HP Tuners or EFIlive and put a little time into learning tuning. with a wideband O2 sensor like Innovate LC-1 you can go way beyond the handhelds. there's a little bit of a learning curve but it's not impossible at all for a mildly clever guy to learn.

Which shifter and programmer do you prefer? I'm also thinking about a dash hawk..seems really nifty to have all that data at your fingertips.
