start with suspension

then you can decide whether or not you want to keep it stock or boost it

but before that you should research any idea that you hear...... i have a "car enthusiast" as a neighbor. he came over my house the other day and asked me if the intake manifold on my living room floor were "headers"

learn exactly what you want to do and how you want to do it

Lower it with, or prior, to getting rims. Then intake and exhaust, then header (if you're sticking with the current engine).

Invest in your engine first then work your way out most people make the mistake of fixing the car up then trying to stuff an engine in with out messing the car up. Trust me you'd rather wrench under the hood now than when you have a nice new shiney paint. I mean how many cars you see that look fast but go slow.
