I wonder too how much more power the transmission, transaxle and clutch can take?
I suggest you do a search on whatever specific mod you might be considering. There are superchargers, turbos, chips, headers, cats, mufflers, intakes, flywheels, clutches, stickers with flames on them, plenums, etc, etc. I've had my 3.2 for about 8 months now and not a single modification looks like it has much bang for the buck other than dropping the 3.4 from a Carerra in it. Because I autocross quite a bit I'm looking at suspension mods and even those don't appear to be that attractive to me (primarily because it would bump me in a different class).

If I were to do modifications (which I may do next spring) I would add strut braces for body rigidity, a louder muffler so I can hear the engine better on the track, and an EVO intake system because it sounds like it may add a little throttle response (and maybe a couple extra HP).
