Default First s2k ap2.. WHAT NOW?

I just picked up an 2004 s2k with BBS rxr's, BC coilovers, and an AEM V2 intake. Will soon be picking up an Invidia Q300 exhaust. What performance mods are a must have for ap2 s2k's??

I think the best performance mod I've done so far was a test pipe. It really helps the throttle response, and makes the car feel a little more alive, but you do lose a little low end torque untuned. Best mod I've done that wasn't necessarily performance was a Moddiction Round Anvil shift knob.
