Okay.
EVO III 16g. New they are 500 bucks, used about 350. - dead on. Be sure to get the real one and not the Chinese knockoff.
550cc injectors. Grab them off an EVO. Can get them as cheap as you can find them. - 650 or 660 if you can find them used...they will fair better than the 550s at WOT.
Intake. About 100ish - UICP hardpiping and a 1G throttlebody will help the 2g intake manifold flow faster. Don't forget to replace the stock air filter with and aftermarket cone and get rid of the achordian style compressor intake pipe with a smoother one...with recirc tube/pipe.
Exhaust. Get one used... who the **** knows what you can find one for. Get a full catback.. not a ****ing muffler. - Turboback with 3", or at least a 2.5-2.75" with the least amount of restrictions if possible, piping.
Apexi SAFC II. About 200 used. - you really do need this to control fuel
Wideband o2 gauge. They range in price. - really need this to tune...speaking of, you'll need a logger too.
Boost gauge. Again, they range in price. - these are going for $255 (AEM UEGO) new
Blow off valve. About 100 used. Recirculate it! - Get a 1G BOV for $50-ish
If you have any money left, get a front mount intercooler. - also suggested and it doesn't have to be huge (don't get that shiny ebay crap either...see Sebz note below). One that will flow at least 625cfm (too much air at one time = too much heat @ WOT, remember that the E316G flows 550cfm) but no more than 700cfm (pressure loss and overkill [bad] for the 16g, that's also just my suggestion)
Remember, no ****ing ebay ****. Unless its original, being sold by a 3rd party. - right on!
I saw the fuel pump, but I didn't see an aftermarket fuel regulator, you'll need that to prevent fuel overrun.

If you really want to be sure, get a 50 trim, but don't expect to stay at or below $2k.
One more thing, if you have a stereo system under the hatch, ditch it. Biggest waste of money for a performance car, IMO. You're supposed to lose weight, not add on

And finally, take it to the tracks and video tape it for later review. After all, the money you spent to upgrade would be wasted if you wrap your car on a telephone pole or a tree. Plus, your parents would be pissed at you if you died because there wasn't safety personel around.
Ok, I'm off my

Best thing I can think of is tie the Camaro to a tree with a chain. Cheaper than anything I've seen so far, except the slashing tires. I've shifted the stock '97 GST and done hard shifting and they feel like they are going to break from the torque and there aint that much. Can't possibly be good for that many races stock for the half shafts or tranny. If I thought they would last I'd take mine to the track. I'd race nearly anything at any time, at the track.
