   To start with i would get a decent induction kit like a bmc or a race land with a green cotton filter.
   Then a exhaust system with a de-cat and then a mainfold.
   Then cams and a re-map.
   
   How much do you want to spend on your engine?

   well it will all depends it will be gettin done bit by bit but 1st i think ill put a airfilter on it for a little grunt and a set of standard vts wheels lowered what is the best amount to lower it by on 15s to still keep the power down on cornering?

   Most people say 30-40mm is best for handling but it dose depend on what shocks-springs you go for and if you uprate the dampers on the rear.I think you could lower your car 60mm and with good shocks and springs and bushes and it would handle really well so just because people say anythink lower than 40mm will handle crap is not the case imo.Just ask james_bristol hes saxo is down 60mm on the front and 70ish on the back and i belive that it dose handle really well.
