So what next?

Ok, I just finished ricing out my entire interior black with red accent, looks increadible, now on to the engine. So far i've basically bought a K & N cone filter, have a very nice HKS Exhaust and plan on going with some very high quality Plugs and wires. What do you guys think I should do next, as far as the engine goes?
Basically I'm just looking for reasonably priced ways to hop up my car a little.

Ps. In case you haven't noticed i have a very limited budget, so adding turbo's porting manifolds and all those other expensive mods are not going to happen.

Thnx

actually if you do the work yourself the price is not really all that outrageous.

A monkey with a grinder could port manifolds, and do other freebie mods. Its really not that hard.

A monkey with a grinder EH? I thought porting a manifold took a lot more than that, just going by some of the 5 page "how-to" write ups i've seen on that topic.

i dont think its that hard, just time consuming. incase you DO mess up go ahead and buy another one as a back up..( i have not done this myself but i have read the write up)
