If you're going for performance, I'd start with a cat-back aftermarket exhaust. It will free up a lot of back pressure. That a good place to start.

Brakes, tires, rotors, and pads are what I'm gonna get with the bonus.

I would eventually like to get a better clutch, new shocks, exhaust system, lowering springs, cams, and a paintjob.
