get headers, exhaust, intake. All that should give you 20-30hp to the wheels, which is pretty good. Also, get shocks and springs. It's amazing the difference that is makes in handling. That should run you around 2G and will transform the car entirely. Don't get rims, yonkers/bronx/ny roads lick my nuts and will cost you $$$$ in bent rims and blown tires. This way, you will have good handling and the tires will absorb all the bumps.

I'd get an AEM EMS....you asked.

Since youre probably not swap or forced induction minded...go with an intake and wheels/tires.

if it was me; I'd get rims/drop... Intake and Exhaust. That way it'll look good and u've started some engine work. And if u do not have clear corners ( ididn't read ur sig) I'd DEFINITLY get those, and if you've got any money left over. Tint the windows. Get all the small but big kewl stuff done and outta the way.
