with the gears and pulleys you are getting.

Get some deep dish wheels with some dr's, then with what ever you have left get some subframes or upper and lower control arms
or
Get finish the exhaust with some LT's and a shorty mid pipe

i'd finish the exhuast if i was you with some headers and X pipe. then get some gears and some DR's. then with the left over money from that get some subframe connectors or cheap control arms.

4:10's and pulleys aren't gonna set you back 2 grand. Get those and an aftermarket mid-pipe and long tubes! And if you have some cash left over look at some Nittos too!

he already has nitrous.

If you can do the work yourself, go with gears, udp's,a nd full exhaust. If you can do the work yourself thats under 1200 there.'

Next you can get some wider rims/tires in the back, or just get some new tires on stock rims and do a little suspension work.
