Welcome to H-T

Depending on the funds i would say next step..suspension..you could get some springs, or coilovers, new struts, or the combination of all of those..they options are endless and so are the prices unfortunately..but search around

well if you do a search you will find that the first mods are usually intake, header, exhaust. An AEM cold air wil run you about 175, a DCS 4-2-1 header ceramic coated will run you around 300 and you can get an apexi world sport for around 400-450. go from there..

kinda also depends on your plans for the car.....i am a big fan of suspension and how it makes the car handle and drive. once you perform some suspension related mods, you may never want to drive a stock suspension vehicle again

F*** the short ram intake. Rip your airbox out, buy a piece of PVC and a filter from Pep Boys and some hose clamps. Gives you the same sound and extra 2 hp for a fraction of the cost. It's also ghetto as hell ahaha.
