Help with 4.8 Upgrades
Just got a 09 Silverado 4.8/4L60E and I'm looking for some upgrades to get better MPG and little more horsepower. So far I have a Spectre Performance CAI 9918B and Flowmaster 40 series exhaust. I'm thinking of getting an Diablo sport trinity or in-tune programmer but i don't know which one to get. Also my local dealer is offering performance tuning for my truck for $600 and $125 for each additional tune. What would be the best mods without spending thousands of dollars? 
Thinking about:
180 thermostat
Jet MAF sensor
JBA Shorty Headers

Best bang for the buck mods:
Tune
Stall Converter
Gears
Long tube headers
Nitrous
Popular tuners:
Blackbear
Wheatley
Nelson Performance
As mentioned above, don't waste your time on the mass air flow, shorty headers, or colder thermostat.
