I would say springs and after that see what kind of exhaust you can get without the mufflers hanging too low as it was in my case when I had my GT.

most bang for the buck 3 angle valve job and port and polish, done anywhere in your town for about 700-1000, good for a good 30-50 hp gain

if the car was dropped 2 inches i would have to worry about the mufflers scraping the ground? i know obviously ill bottom out more but does the exhaust sit on the ground?

I had the car lowered by 2 1/4 inches all around and when I drove over wide speed bumps I would always scrape the mufflers and my x pipe a bit, I know that if I had maybe an 1 1/2 drop I would probably be just fine.
