all depends on what you have planned for the car... if you plan on going FI down the road... save your money and dont waste it on useless stuff.... but if your happy with a little more power then stock and staying N/A.... go for the simple I/H/E... (Intake/Header/Exhaust).... but your first purchase should be a Helms!!! that way you can do stuff yourself and not have to pay monster labour costs.... also a good place to start would be a tune-up if the car hasnt had one recently

Definately buy a Helms manual, you'll be thankful you did. Then you can spend a few weeks replacing the tired parts on the 94 and learning about your car all the while. That way when you do get a performance part, you'll know that you don't have anything else to worry about and will have a good idea on how to start installing it.

Also, I/H/E is the usual set of mods that people invest in when starting out, but never forget to keep reading about your car and performance, nothing beats knowledge.

1. suspensions suspensions suspensions
2. motor work or cosmetics whichever you choose to go first.
