1.) SUBFRAMES!! (especially with the car being a convertible) - buy full-length weld-in's and not the cheap bolt-in ones.
2.) Gears
3.) Underdrive pulleys and/or cold air intake with larger MAF

I know I should listen to my own advice here and install my subframes already, but stiffen up that unibody chassis first and foremost. There's no point in putting more power and torque to the car if the chassis can't handle it.
