I'd also say go with an air filter lid, air filter. Look into a more free-flowing exhaust/catback/muffler if desired. Gearing would be a good idea, don't forget you'll need a way to recalibrate the speedometer.

A programmer would be a great mod and you can then calibrate the computer for gears with it.... I just thaught I would add that so you wouldn't be scared of gears!

Air lid, gears, SLP LT, and Mass Air your exaust is good stock unless you want it any louder after the headers.
