What are you looking for?
What do you want to do with the car, just a daily driver with some more pep or do you want something to race/autocross/time attack ???

With that said simple upgrades that would work for any application would be suspension and braking, bolt on performance include intake and exhaust systems. 94

If you plan on keeping it auto. I would do intake, header ,exhaust. And suspension and tires for handling. Anything beyond that your looking at having the ecu tuned for either fi (forced induction = turbo/ supercharger) or keeping it NA (naturally aspirated) and doing head work, cams, pistons,rods. Ect. Or you could motor swap. Would help to know your plans for the vehicle.
