Depends on what you have done to the car already. If it's stock, do exhaust, gears, then suspension, and then slap on a top end kit and/or a blower

New suspension (lowering springs, shocks, anti-roll bars), wheels, high performance tires, cross-drilled vented rotors with new calipers and racing pads, full exhaust.

Get a ATI Procharger and a better fuel system. They're intercooled, wont effect drivability and you'll be fast as hell with about 12psi of boost, thats into the 400horse range and with a P1SC, easily more room to grow if you ever build another engine and want some real boost. The kit is about $3,500 but you get out of it every penny you spent.

bone stock 91 gt (190hp at the wheels) with a hellion turbo kit made 392.4 rwhp and 487.1 lb-ft. they did it here., thats how i would spend my money. you will still get the same gas milage you are getting now, it will make for a hell of a sleeper.
