standard import upgrades are Cold Air Intake, Cat back exaust, Headers, breather vualve (not really a performance improvement... .5-1hp at most at the flywheel..that translates to like .3hp at the wheels..you see better performance jump when driving on a coold non humid morning..how ever it does help with equalizing oil pressure with air pressure wich can save valves, strut tower pars, suspension drops, and gutting interior....if you have the cash Nitros is a common "ugrade" but it is temporrary and should be named cooter gas....if yo uare going to actually want to go fast gas shocks, highperformance coilovers, swap bars, heads, big bore throttlebody, high flow cats and downpipe, pistons and rods...higher compression pistons if going NA, turbo, cams, ignition, ECU, injectors, fule rail, the list goes on and on... i wont even bother naming style upgrades because IMO bodykits and non effective spoilers are downgrades and are what make the term "ricer" sound like a bad thing...
