Cool, just a quick tip: It really helps us if you put your question or topic in your subject line, that way those of us who have knowledge of your problem can spot you out.
If you have a I/H/E, that's a very good start. Suspension should be next, since it's your daily driver, I'd go with a nice, quality spring and damper set up. It'll give you a firmer ride and it'll be a step up from stock. If you have some cash flow, consider a coil over system, like ground control and match that up with some adjustable dampers, like Tokico's/Koni's/KYB.
As for more horsepower, you're gonna have to start digging in your motor. Look into some cams. Crane and Crower both make some streetable cams that can work with your stock motor. Nothing too fancy, as you're still running a stock valve train. Then later, you can move up to some better, high compression pistons. Personally, I use the JDM ITR pistons and I love them.
Keep in mind that there is no real, black and white guideline as to what order you should build you engine. Some might want to go with pistons before cams or visa versa. Just search around to what the advantages would be for each mod you're thinking of doing and go from there
