I agree with Jouko,
  The absolutely *best* money spent on performance is not an investment
in the car but an investment in yourself. Go to a racing-school, there
are mnay good ones out there. Go to a Q-club event, and learn more about
your skills and the abilities of your car. 
   ALthough I have yet to go, the next investment I make in
"performance" related items of any large expense will be for driving
school. I think either Skippy or Bondurant. 
   In the meanwhile I'm in "limp around" mode..keep the 200q running,
but no additonal performance mods.
