Cheapest way: change your driving style. Maybe you drive your car too hard when you turn in corners and getting out of corners. In german we have a term called "das Auto überfahren" which means you push it over the limit without need and you could be faster without doing it. I don't know to translate that into proper english.

Did you have some driving lessons with a professional instructor? I would recommend that before doing any mods to the car.

This is the best advice. Invest in really good tires and learn and practice braking and cornering technique. Once it clicks it makes a big difference.
