OFT = OpenFlash Tablet. It will allow you to flash tunes, datalog and view data real-time. They run $500 new but you can often find members selling them for around $430 in the Classifieds section. They provide free OTS tunes for various car configurations and fuel types. Even the Stage 1 maps on a completely stock car improves drivability by increasing throttle response and smoothing out the power band.

There are a number of bushings/inserts that can be used to stiffen the car and reduce flex/slop in the transmission, differential, subframe, etc. They can usually be had from between $30-50 and can be done with hand tools.

I forgot to mention MTEC shift springs ($35) for a more positive gear engagement when going through the gears.
