what else should i do to my car??? performance help

look at the signature for mods - This motor runs strong - no ticks, clean smooth idle. Everything is perfect. I am leaning towards maybe PROM burning, some fine tuning, etc. But what should my next step be??? Should i stop the bolt ons and head towards suspension to help with launch??? Anyones advice would be a help. thanks thirdgen people for helping me with my mods.

Prom burning is always a good idea if you're going to get into it yourself. If not, I'd go for a new camshaft and whatever other engine mods you plan on adding first.

If you don't have subframe connectors and a strut tower brace, things like this really help handling. Might not help in the weight reduction part, though But if you like turning...
