Default Next bolt on mod?

I have a 2016 C7Z and want to do one more mod before really throwing the kitchen sink at it. What would y’all recommend? Only have access to 93 mind you. Ultimate goal is 800 at the wheel.

- Rotofab intake
- TSP 2” headers
- off-road X
- Griff tune
- MGW shifter
- RPM 3.90 differential

I'd do a cam and/or meth injection if you don't have access to e85.

A stickier set of tires.

A 2650 technically bolts on.

At minimum do our expansion tank so you can make sure the intercooler pump doesn't shut off due to an air pocket.

Are you planning to upgrade your SC to a magnuson or keep yours in your eventual plan? Not sure when the Z runs out of fuel but you may want to consider a DSX lowside or something maybe?
