It depends on which way you want to go, the "looks" or "performance" route. I would like to see you in a EVO Stage 2 kit and a set of EVO headers. You would be looking at 45 HP and 35 ft/lb TQ. If you decide that route, and purchase this exclusively through RPM, we would throw in the short throw shifter. PM me if you are interested or have any questions.

I would prefer to start with the performance route, what kind of $ are we looking at?

I would say Sound is important. So I would get a exhaust first. Then your usual performance parts headers, CAI, ECU Tuning, etc. Keep us posted

Stop being a pusher. The guy said $5000 now. He can save money after these mods for a supercharger.

If you want handling - go with adjustable coilovers, gt3 sways and droplinks then have the car corner balanced.

If you want power/sound - some combination of a giac flash, full exhaust replacement, plenum, etc...

I'd vote for the handling first, power second because the handling package will make a much more significant change than the power package. Either way - have fun!!!
