Need Advice

Hello everyone! I'm new to the corvette community, I bought my first Corvette about 3 months ago it is a stock machine silver 2008 base model. I want to start making some upgrades and I know I am going to be doing an exhaust in the very near future. Currently looking at a Billy Boat Bullet system. However I was curious what else I should do first. I am currently stuck between adding a NX Nitrous kit or adding a TSP Stage 3 Camshaft (kit with springs, titanium retainers, pushrods). Can people with a bit more experience with these cars chime in and help me decide on what to do next please, and thank you!

Do you want power some of the time? Nitrous
Or do you want power all of the time? Cam

M6 or A6? If A6, a good converter would be your best mod.

Camshaft wise, I’d stay around 230@.050 camshaft wise. Still will add around 50 rwhp but retain street manners. Better to slightly under an than slightly overcam.
