start with teh tech articles. teh ultimate tbi mods parts 1 and 2, diy afpr fro tbi, and the aldl lock up switch if he has an auto.
one of the best bang for the buck mods to get started with is gears and posi. 3.42's and 3.73's are very popular and deliver a great gain.

later

Another mod to start off with is headers and a cat back.

Btw, try to use comma's instead of "enter". I was getting confused trying to read your post.

I would use a 180* t-stat.
The pulleys are a waste of money.
Do the free mods that NJ SPEEDER mentioned (ultimate TBI mods), they are in the tech articles on this site.
Open air element is a good bang for the buck.
I bought a Mr Gasket non drop base unit PN 1480 and a 3" tall element. Get rid of the spacer ring thats under the stock air cleaner because the air needs to enter from the sides not the top.
Next thing I would do is headers and a 3" exhaust. Gears and posi are good to doe also.
