    Colour code it. Air filter. Lower it. Give then engine bay a good clean that makes hell of a difference and its free haa. And a good service if you dont have proof of a service mate, get it running smooth.

    give her a good clean, de-wiper its free, paint engine bay covers, lower it, good service, shorten current aerial free, tint fogs, paint calipers

    should be good and don't need deep pockets

    This thread is in engine/performance so i am taking it you mean performance modifications, unlike above

    Catback exhaust, and induction kit are a good start

    Then a 4-2-1 manifold and if you want a Decat

    full stainless exhaust system: manifold, decat, backbox and then good air filter and a proper service bleed and change everything! (coolant oil, filters...) should see some good positive gains then mate

    Modest lowering, bushes to restore the ride, de-cat, exhaust, service the car etc.
