Being at the stage I'm at with my car now, I have a few opinions.

If you don't care about performance (in the way that you aren't tracking or driving hard regularly), then I'd suggest getting an axelback exhaust. It'll help give you a little bit more sense of speed. To me it just makes the car more enjoyable.

Then I'd say OFT for sure.

Then I'd go with wheels/tires. Depending on budget of course. Wheels is a personal preference thing, but a sticker set of tires such as Yokohama S-Drives, Hankook Ventus V12, or Firestone Firehawk Indy 500 will really help the handling aspect.


It's hard to say what you should and shouldn't do since everybody has different needs, wants, and budgets. Everything that's been suggested so far is spot on though.

For me personally, I bought a muffler delete/track pipe. I also got different wheels on stock tires, and a weighted shift knob. All within the first week. The next summer I lowered the car on Eibach Pro Kit springs, went back to stock wheels (plasti dipped in Vintage Gold) on stickier tires and a drop in filter. This year I purchased a catless front pipe (got a killer deal on it that I couldn't pass up), new wheels, new tires, and an OFT.

To go back in time I may have done some things differently, but I don't regret anything.

At the end of the day it's your car, and you should modify it the way you want.
Of course, come check the forum first to make sure you aren't doing something wrong like getting a catless header without a tune lol.

Welcome aboard and happy modding!
