What mod next?

Mods since buying stock 88GXL. Eibach springs, KYB AGX shocks/struts, B'Stone Potenza's, Bonez Hi flo Cat and RP catback, new plugs and wires. What should be next?
Cone filter? What kind? Price? What else for some more HP without breaking the piggy bank?
Thanks.

since you have the exhaust opened up, open up the intake, get a cone or run some piping to get some cold air.
is your downpipe stock with the two mini cats? if so, dump that for a downpipe or even a racingbeat header.

also, if u have the $ look into a act clutch and a lighter flywheel. i drove a n/a with a 10lbs flywheel and it was real nice. but that might hurt your piggy bank, flywheels are expensive for whatever reason.

if money is a big issue, remove the acessories, airpump, AC, pwr steering if u can handle the car without it.

might lighter like that.

pre-cats gone....

Light flywheels make much difference? what about a cone filter does it need a cold air box made for it? Will sucking in hot air hurt the engine?

a lighter flywheel allows the motor to rev much quick, feel good.
a cone filter will be ok, its up to u if u want to make something that will prevent the hot iar from getting to it. not tough at all, i have to make one myself.
