Basics. Do a tune up. Change the oil, plugs, wires, fuel filter/regulator ect. Than start with an intake and a cat-back exhaust and UD pulley. After that get a set of headers.

YOU do the tune up.

Change diff fluid
change trans fluid and filter
get an intake with a filter that never needs replacing
plugs(I like NGK)
plug wires (don't know about good brands as my car has no wires)
Oil change
clean throttle bodies
fuel filter/dampner/regulator

first step is to get a manual so you can do it yourself. As for cost it depends on what quality stuff you get. I would use royal purple in the diff and trans and amsoil motor oil.

Cold air or even a K&N filter. Intakes do not boost performance until other mods are present. It's a building blck.

What about the muffler bearings and the headlight fluid?
