Default what to do with $1,500

So I've got a budget of about $1,500, and I'm wondering what to do. I'm already getting a cat-back 2.5" exhaust, so this does not factor into the budget that I have.

I was thinking of getting a new throttle body with a spacer, to utilize the custom intake I have made, and also an intercooler kit. I'm not sure what else I can get; I don't have quite enough for a BT upgrade, and before I do that, I need to get a level10 upgrade to the tip tranny.

Any other suggestions? I'm not quite sure if the throttle body/spacer is worth it... but I would imagine so, since I have a massive intake that isn't doing jack **** right now, besides making a cool noise.

I would save the money you have, so you can get all the BT goodies at the same time.

****** please I haven't been to this forum in ages. Besides, I don't want to do all of the BT upgrades all at once... is the throttle body worth it? With the spacer and an upgraded throttle body, I would blindly guess that I can gain 25 horsepower? I may be wrong, feel free to correct me.

everyone's situation is different. the valve body is the most important thing to upgrade for the tranny, but...
