Wotcha and welcome -

 

Before I get into some detail - what is the insurance group for your car - some places say a 4 some say a 14??

 

You have a NA car so the power gains you will get from engine tweaking will be minimal so get it running spot on - panel filter and exhaust, good service - oil plugs etc. keep it on vpower or the like as you can definitely tell a difference in my NA motor. Possibly look at remap to match flow to engine fuelling (A car running tip top has better emmisions and if it is running as it should be will be running at its optimum efficiency)

 

Then look at power to weight ratio - lose whatever weight you can from the car. (this also gives better fuel economy)

 

Then look at chassis mods to improve stopping and turning (this improves the safety of the car)

Bang for buck its never worth it ....... 

 

as above chassis mods are the way forward, someone may have an advantage in a straight line but 9-10 times they cant corner so loose all there speed!

 

Coilovers - anti roll bars - strut braces - proper geo set up - decent tires and lose some weight 

 

all the above and your be laughing :D
