FSTB (80), RSB(220), Y-pipe(375), Oscai(50), UDP(150), Eibachs, Tokico. Al of those should give you tangible results.

if i were u i would get intake and y-pipe from stillen the eibach progessive rate lowering springs and if enough money left after intstall i would get the rear sway bar as well form stillen the intake u can do yourself and the y-pipe you can if u have the right tools i had a problem with it and the rear sway bar should be no prob too..... the springs will cost u a little on install so get quotes on how much and go for what u can with your money........ let me know what you decide on

the level 10 torque converter voids the hell out of your warrenty nad costs 700 dollars and you have to send your converter to them for 2 days...... i am thinkin about doing it even though it voids it and is expensive......... the y-pipe was worth it to me it gives your car a new sound to it i love it........ do what you think is cool the torque converter takes that extra second off of ur 1/4 mile time i think its worth the money but may decrease the life of your tranny (ihave no clue just a prediction) all of the mods that i have i can tell the differnece from stock to now it is a big difference it all depends on what you are lookin for out of your car either handling or horsepower.... antyhing that you do to the max will be noticable in one way or another.

I agree with punkdork... the total for all those will be around $1400 (not counting install $$$ if you can't do them yourself). Plunk down the extra $200 and you will be a happy camper.
