If you simply want a little more life in your car best bang for the buck mod is either more aggressive gearing or a set of HFC's/test pipes.

Weight loss is usually overlooked but makes a huge difference, I'd be wary about gutting everything from the trunk though, it will make the car more tail happy.
Was only saying 1500 cause I did all of mine for that, 255 WHP ended with 298 WHP ( 43 WHP) An NO HFC's ,TP's or headers.

Intake Gen 3's Catback (SIG) and Tune. Also on a atuo he would see a little more if he's a manual.
