My next steps would be an RSB and FTSB. Or new struts, if yours are on the way out...

Intake & Y-pipe are your basic HP bolt-ons. Anything else (cat, b-pipe, muffler, UDP, yadda yadda. Anything under $400) really won't increase your horsepower noticeably. The next options (mostly $400+) are more expensive, but will boost your HP up very noticeably while keeping the performance mods under a $1000.
ECU (95-96 only)
MEVI
Cheap NOS setup
Not a lot left eh? If you want to spend more than $1000, you've got:
Supercharger
Good NOS setup
Turbocharger
Built motor
Bla bla bla bla.
I was in the same boat as you about this time last year. I came into an extra $1000 lying around, and jumped on the Road Beast group deal. You can imagine what happened after that. Following that, I came into more money, bought a V1, and bla bla bla.
Needless to say, your Max can and will become a money pit if you're not careful. If you can't see yourself spending hundreds to thousands of dollars on it in the future, stop while you still can

I read somewhere that JET ECU's were no good. so was that ur dyno or JET's claim? I'd prob buy one if that was the fact.
