Well for bolt ones-

Underdrive Pulley
Throttle Body
and a Tune up

of course some 4.10 gears and a TLOK wouldnt hurt. They dont add hp but help acceleration.

You are missing the split port intake and heads. That is the only way you are gonna catch up to the 99+ models with bolt ons.

You are missing the split-port heads and intakes that the 99-04's upgraded to. That is what gave them the extra hp. Take a look around... Their are at least three threads going on about this issue right now so you can easily find info.
