long tube header, 60mm tb, motor mounts, cam and cam gear, full on exhaust. mpx or outher style udp, it all depends on how fast you want to go and how much you want to spend.

Lightwheight flywheel while your in the tranny (you have to replace it anyway.) heavy duty clutch, I'd go stage 2.
Alone they wont make you much faster, but they will help later.
