Question Upgrade suggestions

What other easy worth while up grades would you veteran Pelicans recommend? I did the headlight relay. I've had this car for a couple of years now, love it . A blast to drive, its all stock. I replaced the fuel line and steering bushing out of necessity. It's a street car. Would appreciate your suggestions.

being a Carrera, you should sell it immediately and buy a nice SC, and then join the SCWDP! MUUUHAHAHAHAHHAAAAAAAAA......

OK, seriously, being a Carrera, from all I have read, the best bang for your buck will be to chip it and install sport exhaust maybe. But the "others" will be able to confirm... good luck and post pics if you have not already...

A new chip and cat bypass is a good place to start in my opinion.

Then we can start talking about wider tires, bigger brakes, better suspension, etc. .

Nothin beats a thorough maintenance regime. Fresh transmission fluid, suspension bushings and lubs, fresh shifter bushings and brake fluids are often neglected and wear items that go unnoticed in their deterioration but make a big difference when refreshed.
