posting for a friend: 2000 Boxster, what would be your first mods?

We all know every single car can benefit from simple mods sometimes. Whether its a part, removing something or replacing something used with a newer variant, there are always common mods.

My university professor asked me to take a look at to what he can do to give his car a little kick, I dont think he cares about power much but is much more interested in driving dynamics.

What would you recommend he look at?

Thanks in advance!

Cayman Cab S is infamous around these parts
Bilstein shocks, Heavy Duty are less firm than the Sport model. My HD give a firmer ride and even help braking, less nose dive.

Hard to add power to this car, but having owned a few, I have always enjoyed adding a cat back. There are many and a wide range of pricing so have fun hunting one down.

I also agree that shocks and tires are also high on the bang for buck list. Lower on the list would be the plenum, and you can do the air inlet cover delete to further improve the sound.
