I could prob. search, but well lets see what comes up.
First, are there any quick, easy or simply cheap mods that I can do to the car? Either performance or anything really.
What are some good mods so far after a few days this is my list
-I love the look of the angel eyes
-must tint windows, (if only I still lived in FL!! where it was legal)
-paint brake calipers (looks cool i think...maybe)
-thinking about air intake
-white face gauges
But you are all the experts. Take me by the hand and show me the way!!

spend the money on speed centric mods first would be my opinion. Nothing like a better kick in the seat of your pants or skirt depending on your tastes or gender. :)

IIRC the cold air intake was the best dollar for dollar but I the PCM tune was a close second. I would probably do the CAI first any way just to open up the air flow. If you are a DIYer you can put together your own CAI kit including intake tube. LLSOC sells a stainless steel tube kit but I really think it is priced about 200 bux too much.
The sctflash tool can reprogram the pcm but I would recommend finding a local shop to work with so you can get your tunes tweaked faster and dyno'd at the same time. It can be a drawn out process otherwise.

surfjax might be able to help with the cone. I have not bought mine yet. I am fabricating my tube out of plexi. I have some links back home to a site where I bought my tubing from. You will need a heat source to bend the tubing though. I have a self made heating element that I use but I first started by using an iron covered with a towel.
I wont be able ot post the links till sunday. I a stuck in detroit right now and wont get home till midnight and have a busy family day tomorrow. You might try looking up some local sources for tubing in your area. Most will even bend a cut for you for a nominal fee.
