gears and exhaust and a tune if you can swing it....wont add too much HP but it will be a HUGE difference... remove your air silencer and get a K&N filter also

Here's a great starting list:

Used Catback exhaust and mid pipe .............$450 + install
3.73 or 4.10 gears ....................................$200 + install
K&N drop in air filter w/ silencer delete .........$45
steeda tri ax shifter handle ........................$25

This will definatly make it feel like a new car...You'll love it.You can find free and cheap mods for your car too as you start to search around on the internet and forums.

P.M. me if you want a K&N air filter
