If you had to pick one performance mod, what would it be?
1. Short shift kit ($199 from Eric at bumperplugs). Really does change the way you connect with the car.
2. H&R springs (1.25" drop for about $300) or coilovers if you're into spending more.
3. Mufflers. Hack what you have or buy aftermarket depending on your budget.
Forget about additional HP if you want bang for the buck since there's no cheap way to buy HP for these cars. Wouldn't spend a dime on "cold air intakes" and such.

+1 on the B&M short shift kit.
Go do some DE's, then you will want track tires and suspension upgrades.
HR sway bars are on my mental list of pending mods.
I just installed a Rennline pedal set a nice mod. I bought them because I wanted the toe throttle extension (and not the heel extension) and I decided to get the complete kit.
A fairly simply DIY about +1 vs an oil change. You do need the drill the pedals and spend a little time to make sure the bolts will go where you drill the holes!
I got the throttle extension in black for a subtle contrast - other choices available.
I ordered on Monday night and they arrived and were installed on Friday evening.

Well his car is NA right now

Florida is mostly flat and straight. Out of all the junk I put on my car, the SC has been the most enjoyable.
I seriously think that a lightweight flywheel should be on this list and in the running. It really makes a difference, as does a limited slip. Do them at the same time. I mean, yeah... a few hundred bucks in springs and a short shifter with the other two mods I mentioned too and you've got a serious car.
