    This will get you started. You N/A like me so there is not a whole lot you can do unless you top swap or go turbo.

    Flipped mounts.

    180* T-Stat.

    Shift kit, trans pan drop.

    Plugs/wires/PCV...get it running right. Some AL606's...gap them @ .050".

    HV3, headers, whatever catback you want to run...stock is fine...if you want a different noise, swap the muffler(s).

    Upgraded springs then rockers or cam, might put you close to a stock GTP...but you could just save for a Z3 turbo kit that bolts on and goes and will make a stock blower car just look silly.

    Then you'll be wanting to upgrade the transmission...so it's a brutal cycle, lol.

    If you go that route (probably not if you read his baller status) you will want to look up GMR Badass for some go fast parts and trans parts when you break them.

    Depending on your long terms plans for the car, I think Blueguys little outline is perfect.
