first you need to hit the search button, after that you will find out about boost controllers, drop in filters, fuel pumps, down pipes, test pipes and intercooler hard pipes, these are just a few ideas for most mods that most people start with.

Depends on how much money you want to spend.

I would add an intake before a tune. You can add a lot of bolt on parts...what are your goals with the car?

open it up, air entering (intake) and exiting (exhaust). a 9 turbo would be a cheap upgrade, then look at an intercooler, and fuel upgrades. A tune will greatly increase power and reliability, and should be changed after each alteration.

Who's your cousen? And where can I get one? None of my cousins have cool cars though.

TBE and a tune is where I would start.

Can give you a great ECU Tune after your cousin puts a Test Pipe and a Drop-in Air Filter. For a couple hundred dollars your cousin can get around 50WHP out of just these few mods
