K&n fipk intake is a good cheap mod that should show a few hp gain and sound pretty cool. A test pipe is another option.

Test Pipe - $70-75
Remove Spare tire and other unnecessary items from the car - Free

Top two that popped up in my head. A little bit of weight shaved makes a big difference in the little torqueless wonder and you will feel the extra oomph with the test pipe for sure.

Just get a flashpro and a test pipe. You should be good up to 230Whp. Don't waste your money on other mods.

Suspension/tires. Yeah the stock suspension is awesome but lets face it.. Never hurts to drop the car down a bit and bring some grip into the picture.

Make sure you've got some tires that best suit your driving style.
