...to get the most additional performance for the least amount of money?

I have some funds put by to let the old gal get a little pressie for giving me so much pleasure.

What can I give her to increase performance vs the best cost ratio?

All replies will be appreciated.

She currently has an after market exhaust which will stay with her forever, its gorgeous, so no exhaust mods please.

Turn the AC off, then driver training, then tyres then with a dramatically poorer ROI brakes/suspension for track use.

Go on a diet. Both you and the car.

Then tyres.

Then brakes.

Then suspension.

If its purely accelerative performance he is after (He hasnt said) then changing the car will be the most cost effective.
