Looking into another performance mod, and maybe some exterior parts. Looking at the steeda udp's, charge motion delete plates, and shorty headers, i know someone is going to tell me to get longtubes, but i already have a offroad x. So im probaly just go with shortys.
Any ideas, lead me in the right direction, give me your thoughts.

Look at my sig. for my current mods.

I did underdrive pullies, headers, midpipe, cai and tune all in one shot so I can't say which mod made the biggest difference...but I did notice a good change. The biggest thing for me was the 4.10 gears...it really gave the car what it needed out of the hole. Love the gears and that is my vote.

I'm definitely going with the underdrive pulleys. I've been looking at gears. 3.73, 3.90,4.10? Leaning towards 3.73's.

don't fear the gear. don't go less than a 4.10. you'll end up installing them later if you don't. i went from 4.10's to 4.33's to 4.56's.

You already have 3.31 gears...I don't think 3.73 would be enough of a difference. If the car is not your daily driver then I would really recommend the 4.10s...I love them!

Gears definitely make a huge difference, but we need to know more about your plans for the car. If you're planning on staying N/A, go with 4.10's at least. If you have plans of a blower/turbo, you may want to hold off on gears for a bit until you go F/I, so that you can figure out exactly what changes to your gearing need be made.

If you plan to stay n/a those are some good mods combined that you have listed. Definitely do 4.10's, even if its a dd. They really help out.

The cars my daily driver. I'm staying N/A for awhile. But looking into F/I in the near future but probably not for a good 1 and a half or 2 years. I'm going go with the udp's, and also maybe the delete plates. Thanks for the help guys. Really appreciate It.

You can skip the shorties unless it's just a visual mod, they aren't going to do anything but look perty.

First thing I would do is toss your TB spacer. The power gains don't cancel out the added weight it brings.

Also, get the longtubes! If you're going to be crawling under the car to swap out your manifolds, just do it once and get longtubes.

What is "Various other stuff"?
