do the same i did, CAI,Header,Exhaust, make sure you take that baby to an mechanic, get a tune up man, i did one as soon as i got my tegi back in may. after that you can maybe focus your attention on the head, cams,valves,valve sprinsg, etc.. with this combo my JDM ITR motor revs well over 9000RPM. also dont forget the suspension, it needs to ride well too.

Honestly? Learn to drive it.

Spend at least a year doing that otherwise you'll never know what "improvements" it needs or what the effect of those "improvements" are once they're done and you may find you wasted money on something. Save your money for a year and then do something you think it needs or something you you really want as opposed to dropping a little bit of money now just so you can say you modded your car.

Congratulations on the new car!

Welcome, do a lot of reasearch before you start throwing shit on your car that is the best advice i can give you, see what u would like as far as power, money wise, and your use... then go from there

Not necessarily. It all depends on the build.
