A higher octane is not going to do anything except waste your money, you will want to start off with the basic bolt-ons:

Cold Air Intake
Dual-Exhaust ystem
Underdrive pulley
Hand Tuner to fix up that sloppy auto tranny and to tune the car
and Gears and a t-lok (posi)

and if your feeling fancy...a m-90 supercharger. You will have to ask around about that as Im lost when it comes to that stuff. Try Cobra232 or Mr. Merk

Autobadges.com can fix up up with alot of this stuff you can also try some of the other sponsors like RPM Outlet

 

Get some gears (4.10s), Exhaust, and CAI
