Intake, exhaust, header.

By the time you buy all that, it'll be time for new tires. laugh.gif

the absolute biggest change you can make to how your car runs and handles is rims and tyres.. But really, it also depends on what you want to do with the car. But either for race or rice, you still need nice wheels..

from what you said....rims/tires. contrary to popular belief, electronics do not make your car perform any better.

Sure they do man. If you put a turbo timer on that sucker, it'll perform A LOT better.

LOL
