Then if you have some more money go for a final drive to a 3.9 ratio.
But also give it a good service, pads, oils, coolant, etc. And get yourself some good suspesion!
awesome, thanks fellas - im thinking i want to spend around $1000 on mods... should that cover exhaust and intake?
suspension is done already... apart from that the car is stock.
also how many (rule of thumb) kw gain will i get from those kind of mods and a good ol fashioned tune?

exhaust should only cost about $350 in mild steel (stainless is raspier and won't drone as much) and a panel filter can be found cheap from German Auto parts online or a CAI from a few places online (anywhere from $80-300)...
