you already have the basic bolt ons
you can consider a turbo a bolt lol
get bigger injectors and throttle body
bolt ons arnt really going to show you a big improvement
you can always go with like a 50 shot of nitrous thats a bolt on and your car can take 50 all day long and do some weight reduction every 100 pounds is a tenth of a second in the 1/4 hope i could help you a bit

Tranny swap would be my idea. you cant change your top end if your gears wont allow you.

yeah huh more power baby! and he is right too
im guessin you have a b16 tranny if so it prolly feels like a bat out of hell until 4th

you should swap a ls tranny in they have longer gears but dont feel as fast acceleration wise

from what i know, a b16 tranny is the best tranny to use for the drag strip. i woul dadd on LSD to your tranny and get bigger TB and injectors with a tune, and you'll be good to go.

haha or he is really good...

and you can strip pretty good amount of weight and keep your interior
i love my full interior thats why i have a coupe and i like 2 doors

but get rid of ac,power steering, take everything out when you race and get some light weight wheels i mean every little bit can help and if your a little heavy diet pills would help to lol

but if you dont wanna lose any of those throw nitrous on im tellin you that you wont regret it just do LOTS OF RESEARCH and use a safe size shot wouldnt go above 75 or 100 unless shes built personally go with a 50 or 75shot that will give you the little extra power you want only when you need it so doesn't mess with gas mileage or anything

hope i helped a little
