A parachute!

Just kidding... I'm new to some of the mods but had this image of a funny car with a chute popping out of the back. Sounds like the car should be a screamer already. Have you looked at the M7 hood scoop? I think they estimated a 5+ HP gain for a couple hundred bucks. I like the looks of it as well.

Add some convenience accessories like the Euro Parcel Shelf or Ian's Auto Up window circuit. If performance is all you're after, you might want to attack the suspension next. A rear swaybar is always a good idea. You've already added the basic bolt-ons to the engine. (If you want even more power, it's gonna get complicated and expensive.)

Put a H Sport rear sway bar on. One of the best mods to my car.

Has anyone looked into a turbo add on? At altominiperformance.com there is a turbo kit that works in combination with the supercharger. Looks interesting.

That website should be altaminiperformance.com, not alto. It is Monday.
