i would first go for a mantzel inlet manifold and a new exhaust manifold to free the flow up abit. i would also change your induction kit for either the standard air box with a performance filter in it.(do a search on how to modify the standard air box further) or a pipercross viper style induction kit, pricy but they help to keep the air cold which help with your performance, an open induction kit has the opposite effect!!! after that u could go for cams and adjustable vernier pulleys(kent cams are very good) and then finally go somewhere to get a unichip and get it set up on a rolling road to get the most out of all your tuning bits! personally i dont think its worth forking out for a chip with just an exhaust and induction kit!! anyway thats just my 2 penneth!!lol
