after the intake, tb and plenum and the tune, maybe bigger injectors (and any changes the tune needs) and pulleys (or did you already have those.. cant remember lol).
There's still cams, but those are a bit more than a simple bolt on IMO.

I thought injectors because at that point you'll have done a lot of work to increase the amount of air and improve airflow in your system, it might be worth taking advantage of a bigger injector to add more fuel to the mixture as well. But I wouldn't know where to go past that or what injector size is best 
And again I'm not sure the MAF upgrade would be strictly necessary, depending on injector size, but I can't imagine it hurting either.
Part of why I haven't upgraded mine yet is because I don't yet know what the actual gains would be or what else is needed, maybe someone who knows more can chime in

I mean.. more air+more fuel = more power

I know.. well it took me almost 2 years to put 15k on it to put it over
suprisingly i have seen new edge gts selling for around 6k-8k around here with that many miles..
I drove around the block till i finally hit 99999.9, took a picture then another at 100k.

So I have been thinking... what are some good 100k "tune up" parts?
What I have done:
-spark plugs
-coolant replaced
-new brake fluid
-all brake hardware rotors and pads have less then 5k on them
-every busing replaced aside from front control arms
-new rear end fluid
-air filter (new cai)
-new tires
-all bulbs replaced
What I think should be done:
-fuel filter
-transmission fluid (someone recommend a brand!)
Any suggestions?

But seriously...I think some of that is unnecessary. If you need new bulbs, get new bulbs. But I wouldn't just start replacing them just because. Same with the tires and air filter.
