Default not hp related, but....

....get subframe connectors installed and if a manual trans, an aftermarket shifter. these wont give you anymore HP but they will make what you have more fun to drive. the frame connectors will save on body twist, broken windows and mis-alinged body panels and the aftermarket shifter will help the trans live longer

you'll still have enough left with Randy's picks to snap up an Xcal2 which will open tuning doors later on when even more parts are on your menu.
