[QUOTE="ivan12, post: 1168425, member: 10120"] No custom tune on stock engine, that money could be spent elsewhere. Bang for buck upgrades: gears (you already have), 100 shot of nitrous, full length subframe connectors, rear lower control arms, short throw shifter, good set of lowering springs. Although some of these might not feel like they make you go faster they do make the car handle better and the driving experience more enjoyable. Full exhaust is nice to have but it's not going to give you a lot of power, will mostly just make your car louder but not all that faster. You're probably not going to like just swapping out intakes yet, with a basically stock engine you're going to lose some low end power and gain a bit on the top and since it is a daily driver you'll notice the lack of power even more. Depending on your level of mechanical skills I'd start reading into doing a GT-40 top end swap instead with the budget you're working with [/QUOTE]
