Advice. Needed
Ive finished off the exhaust system, cai, tune etc. Now im stuck on where i should go next either my suspension to stop wheel hop or some 345 gears. Does it matter or any suggestions why one would be better then the other?

Suspension! Get you some cradle bushings along with some Trailing Arms. That will really help to stiff up you suspension, get rid of most if not all of your wheel hop, and allow you to put the power to the ground.
BTW: don't waste your money on 3.45 gears. Go with at least 3.70 or don't bother. Just my opinion.

Are you having wheel hop issues now? Typically, that's not much of an issue for the L99 till you have a lot more power. That being said, suspension mods are NEVER a bad idea. I'd also go with a little more gear than the 3.45, unless you're planning to go FI. 3.70's are much better for getting this pig moving but they are a bit more $$ than 3.45's.

I don't think at that power level wheel hop is too bad? What do you do with the car? DD, drag race? Long term goals? And what are you looking to spend now? I'd say a nice cam would be my next choice! but know your long term goal. As for gears I really like the 3.91's but they aren't "best" for FI later. I did ride in a ysi car with them and it's doable! suspension mods are never a bad thing either. Look into pfadt and bmr. Apex has great pricing on them!

CutOuts
Because they sound awesome and free up some extra HP. My DMH cutouts added 7RWHP on the dyno

Well its a DD for now LS3 conversion is on the table for my next big mod this year. Im only at 365 rwhp, 396 torque. I drag if very rarely. The gears was what was suggested by ADM. I dont have any wheel hop but im think it will eventually have enough hp it will. So thought it would be easier to prepare for it ahead of time.

I would go with the Suspension. There is a lot of slop left in the bushings that are keeping the Camaro from putting the power to the ground. Bushings and Trailing Arms are a must.
