Default Engine Help

I've had my car for about 2 years now but i want to spice it up a bit. i would like to keep it a daily driver but to get more horses out of it. i do plan on doing kooks LT headers and y pipe to go with my already installed magna flow cat back exhaust system. but i don't know what else i really should add.

if you have any ideas for what i should do it would be greatly appreciated, thanks for reading and for the help you guys will bring me.

Fast intake an tb would be a nice addition, or if your not opposed to tearing into the motor a cam and spring will net some great power.

yeah I'm defiantly going to eventually do intake and throttle body, i really want the FAST intake and tb but the 102mm is way to big for what i want to do for my car, I'm really looking for the 92 92 combo but i heard they are hard to come by which kinda suckss...
