if u were planing on turbo-ing it or throwing some spray on it...then putting higher quality internals would be the way to go...but if u dont wanna do that much just get a nice aem or k&n cold air intake, make a ground wire kit or buy one, header,high flow cat, and exhaust then some minor suspension mods like springs, and front and rear tower braces. some will agree with me some wont but if u buy it and wait til u have all those things and put em all on at once there will be a noticeable difference in the way it performs and handles also high performance spark plugs and plug wires help too...and thats just the basic cheapest mods to improve performance..wont be the fastest thing but u would be pleased with the improvements
