From what I've been reading (and I'm a newb too) it's rather expensive to get any meaningful HP gains out of this car without going forced induction. Back when I had a Mustang I could throw cheap parts at it and feel every one of them make a difference... With the Z you're already pushing 330+ HP out of a 3.7L v6 so there's not nearly as much room to grow on a N/A build. I'm just not sure dropping upwards of $4k on a tune, exhaust, intake, and some bolt-ons is worth it for like maybe 50 HP.
