Would i be faster if i did coilovers and other suspension tunning surely but i don't have a track that's less than 5hrs from me.
but then where's the fun?

When i do feel like drifting or when the straightaway comes up then it's bye bye n/a frs lol. You can only use as much power as your tires, suspension and driving skill will tolerate. If I put a full track suspension and r comps on my car I'm pretty sure it would be faster around a track than a 200whp na car. Ask @Gopherboy6956
