Default simple mods?

I'm away at school and bored, looking for some sort of easy mod to do to my 98 formula. Keep in mind I only have basic tools such as a ratchet set.

What kinda things can you come up with that I could do.

btw, I've already done a lid and cold air intake

Lid, bellows (not necessarily something you should do), throttle body (have it ported), thermostat, shifter if you have an m6

appearance mods: (halo's, whistlermodded), corners, grille

if you have access to a jack at all, you could do lower control arms, but the above mods are all pretty much easy w/ your basic tools

If you still have the egr hooked up you can cut off the end
of the egr tube that sticks through the TB.
every little bit helps an all you need is a screwdriver an a hack saw

If you need other tools I know the Auto Zone around here will let you use theirs. You leave a deposit and take the tool(s) you need. When you bring the tools back you get your money back.
