Decent map, de-cat, mani, cams to name a few. Carefull with the induction kit as more often than not they decrease the power unless you have a cold air feed too as they just suck hot air in.

Seriously though, your cheapest 3 starter upgrades will probably be an induction kit/panel filter, then a new exhaust, then a remap.
After that its cams n expensive stuff. All depends on how much money you want to spend!

Does the LSD make the gearbox seem better in some way?
