Default NEED HELP ON GETTING MODS

What are some mods that I could get that would boost my 5gen lude with $300 bucks?

What I have/done:

AEM Cold Air
Some kind of deep muffler
Bosch Plaitnum Sparkplugs
Mobile 1 Synthtic
Fresh ATF Fluid

Rest of car is all stock.

So I'm lost at what I can do thats in my price range. I want a turbo kit that would be carb but don't think I can find one, does one exsit?


Would headers-back be a good investment?
Although external coil packs don't do anything should I get one?

Your opinion would be great!

You're not going to get much for $300.

Save the money while you read up more about how cars work.

I would look for a good custom header then after you saved a little more I'd do a dyno tune on a reputable tuning system. Even 100% stock you can squeeze a good amount of HP out of the overly rich factory tune. But the best part is that the tune will make all your bolt-ons really shine.

varying opinions on how much the s2 really benefits you; def won't do a lot on a near stock motor. if you're really looking to unload your $, i'd probably say find a used exhaust; but i would advise saving it for a raining day or upcoming maintenance (tires, brakes, etc)

just do a tune up.....oil change, spark plugs, cap, rotor, flush out all the fluids.

probably be the best....

Only thing i need to flush is the brakes which I will once I find a fluid that wont absorb large amounts of mositure but still protect the lines at high temps.

Sorry about the title caps was on for some odd reason, and it wouldnt let me change it once i posted.
