    Extractors and a good air filter for the intake. Light weight alloy wheels, carbon fibre body kits for weight reduction, mastering the use of a short shifter.

    Throttlebody could be picked up used off a magna for about 100 bucks..

    But do it at the same time as tuning the car.
    I fix cars.
