It's hard without going forced induction. Custom CAI (go to club202.com and search about CAI's), headers, and cat-back exhaust is your best bet (still very expensive - especially for Supersprint headers). As far as suspension goes, just do a H&R, Bilstein combo...that would be good enough...

not stock.
with 5K in performance mods... I would look into the following:

Engine:

1. Custom cold air intake
2. throttle body overbore
3. sparkplug & wire upgrade
4. racing catlytic converters (magnaflow)
5. custom 2.5" highflow exhaust (mandrel bent)
6. Camshafts
7. a 50shot wet NOS kit.

Suspension:

1. H&R springs
2. H&R sway bars
3. KONI shocks

Brakes:

1. Drilled rotors front & rear
2. performance brake pads front & real
3. stainless brake lines with quality brake fluid..

i would stay away from nos and cams and pick evo pully system, bore out mas as well as tb to 82mm get some headers and looking into geting a lighter battery you are not going to get a huge amount of power out of these cars, maybe a port and polish though....
