Re: whats SUSPENSION mod would you do first ?????
IMHO, the two suspension pieces which will give you the MOST NOTICEABLE improvement over stock on our cars are weld-on SFC's and SHOCKS. (Can't believe no one has suggested shocks yet! The rebound settings on our stock deCarbons SUCK.) You should be able to get BOTH of these for close to your price range, and you'll have a car that will handle better than stock, and feel better doing it.
Post this over in Handling & Braking, and I think you'll get similar responses. Good luck.

Since you said cornering and launchin, I would have to go with swaybars and LCA's. If you have any money left over then I would get some SFC's.

Subframes-$300-400 installed
Lower control arms--depends
these are the first mods that I would do, and If I could only pick one, it would be the subframes. If you dont do anything else to your cars suspension, get subframes.

SFC's first then lca's,stb,phr,poly tranny mount,and t/q arm mount.Get poly ends and weld the sfc's on and this should get car firmed up for road and track.

I would do SFC's and a MADMAN TQ Arm. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />
It has worked great for me. 1.46's 60fts with a M6 Hot Rod. <img border="0" alt="[devil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />
