Welcome to the forum!!! CAI, exhaust, and probably a tuner if you have any $$$ leftover.

Yup what northey said for that cash. Sad but 1500 isnt gonna get you much more than that. Im not sure if there is an aftermarket coil kit for silverados, i was thinking of adding that if anyone knows.

I would suggest going with a K&N Cold Air Intake. I ususally buy my stuff from www.autopartswarehouse.com. Just type in the make, model, ect and search under cold air intakes. I checked into one for you, the K&N 63 Series cold air intake, it will gain you 17.54 Horse Power and some more torque as well as fuel economy. That one runs about $280.00. Also, go with a cat-back dual exhaust system. With these together, you will gain more power and better gas milage.
