Welcome to the board. Are you looking for performance mods or just looking to maintain the originality of the car? If you are looking for a turbo setup, ill save us all from the dreaded questions and just tell you now, you'll be looking at a motor swap for any turbo mods, unless you dont mind burning up your current one. Let us know more about your car, and maybe some pics.
As for additional information on your car, you should check out Rizz's links page Here, it has a lot of valuable information and good links to pretty much everything you'll need for your car.

lol im 5'6 im sure ill manage. i test drove with the four cylinders and it will take some getting used to because of the hatch and its a low car im use to driving the 03 nissan altima so ill also have to get use to the 5 speed manuel. but i think ill manage.

I just installd thema week ago in what was supposed to be my new slicktop 300z but he doesn't want to sell it yet. the good news is i made the factory sliders work with it, so they are not set for a 6'1 guy

just kidding... you want to get some headers, a little bit more free flowing exhaust, pulleys, intake, and get it all dyno/road tuned by a pro. also maybe some bigger fuel pump and injectors, and once again a good tune.

a good start would be ...
1.a high flow hard pipe intake- i got injen, but who ever is good
2.cat backs- i heard greddy sells good ones for the 2+2
3.ecu upgrade- jim wolf, ash spec, and others
then you can get into..
4. headers- amz(on sale now) and stillen are good
5. test pipe(replaces the cats)- who ever is on sale...its just pipes
6.light weight underdrive pully- most shops sell them like stillen, amz, conseptz ect.
7.a sport clutch- what ever is your taste. i got rps sport to handle what hp im expected to run. dont waste your money buying high hp clutches and you wont produce the power to use it.
8.light weight fly wheel- like the underdrive pully, it frees hp, not nesseserily gives you a gain. jim wolf, rps and others makes them. you might as well get it since you got the tranny off
9.throttle body mod- its free! just look for the restrictor by your throttle body and remove it. that will give you a full open throttle.
10.cams- just about everyone sells cams..jim wolf, stillen, jun
11.twin turbo injectors-their bigger than the NA, it will allow for higher fuel flow, so youll need them only if your goin to do #12
12. NAWWWWWWWWWS- the easiest way to get close to 300 hp
thats about all i can think of for bolt ons.... update me anyone if im missing something im doing an NA build myself which im almost there with all parts listed
then you can get more into it by boring out your motor and putting larger compression pistons... like an 11:1 ratio
good luck!
