Ok, im gonna give you an honest reply before the wolves come in and rip you to shreds for putting gay *** neons on yer car, not a lot of Fast & Furious fans on here.

So, short throw shifter, exhaust, and CAI is pretty much all you got performancewise, and the rest is show, i would highly reccommend doing more performance mods.

Look into getting 4:10 gears and a t-lock and a tuner, you will have better traction, you will launch faster, and you will gain a few hp as well and be able to correct the speedo after the gears are installed.

expect about $300 for gear installation.

That would be the best way to go in my view unless you feel like getting into nitrous, but if it is a daily driver i wouldnt reccommend nitrous.

sounds like a nice car overall. I would say suspension. Get some springs, shocks, struts, and possibly cc plates that should all come out near 1000 depending on if you need the cc plates

I agree with the two above, gears and springs were the two most rewarding mods I've done.
