Gears, upper and lower, rear control arms, headers, H or X pipe, bump your timing, get a larger MAF(73-76mm), upgrade to a 65mm TB, then consider tearing into the motor

Yeah, have to agree w/ adder and prime on this one. As far as the chip, never buy a generic one cuz they are worthless for the most part. If the time ever comes to need one, have one custom burned to your specific application.
