Are you an automatic or 5 spd. If you are 5 spd. get a short throw, if you're an automatic get a diff. intake manifold (used for around 300 or new for around 400). Or you could get some bolt ons and do a little tuning up i.e. MSD cap/rotor, plug wires, spark plugs bigger MAF and TB. Just little things like that.

Oh oh oh I know you should get a really big wing for the back, and and 8" muffler and w/ the remaining couple of dollars get some NOS stickers, my ricer friends say that adds like 100 horses.





No, but seriously the intake is a good idea, and so is the aluminum driveshaft but if you're only looking to spend 300 then you won't be able to get both.

id say hold off on spending anything now, save up for some cylinder heads, whether porting the e7s or finding some scrapyard gt40s. youll be much happier with the results than any 2 or 3 300$ parts you would buy

That's true, I'm a man with no patience. I guess I'll learn it soon because I've ran out of cheap and easy mods, my final bolt on comes on Thursday (MAC catback).

If you've got 300 to spend I'd get a manual VB, or save up another 200 and get a nice converter.
