i would maybe be thinking in gettin underdrive pullys
ORIGINAL: 91hatchgt
Can barely fill the tank with $200 these days...
BUT
if you just recently got the car, I would do cap and rotor, new spark plugs, fuel filter, K&N air filter, clean the IAC and MAF, check the TPS, advance the timing a little, and add a 180* thermostat.. That would be a good start.

if you plan on getting a sound system underdrive pulleys aren't that good don't they not put off enough power to recharge the battery

RE: new guy doesnt know where to start
I was being sarcastic about the gas tank. lol It was a joke.. 
As for the underdrives, you can get a set without the alternator pulley, this way you still get the benefits of the underdrive system, without loosing the alt. output.
Underdrive pulley's are not a bad idea. Descent power increases.. I have never used underdrive pulley's but I guess I may on my 94.

RE: new guy doesnt know where to start
headers would be my choice if you still have the stock manifolds
or save like 300 more so you can get gears and have a shop install them for you

RE: new guy doesnt know where to start
tune up. then save a few hundred more and get yourself some 3:73 gears. if your on a budget and want to feel a difference that is your best bet. go ford racing gears for about 200 install kit 100 and maybe a few hundred for install
