pacesetter headers, that's my next soon as I get $220. You could still get a coil, cap, rotor too.

Cam swap...I went from a 10.65 (had hedders though) to a 10.04 in the 1/8 from swapping to a VERY mild cam from CRANE. Parts cost me about 250ish including cam, springs, locks and gaskets. Swapping hedders took me from a 10.75@62.7 in cold weather to a 10.65@64.62 in hot humid weather.

If you've got friends and connections like I do, you can turbocharge your car and have 200 bucks left over... if...

LOL, yeah!

I'd say pacesetter headers + dynomax catback, if your car already has the TomP treatment.

Otherwise, that needs to be first!
