intake and exhaust are the basics to start from. Beyond that you start talking forced induction which turns into money. I would stick to those then maybe do a couple things to make it look nicer like lowering it and rims

Not much you can do besides intake and full exhaust.

Aside from the previously mentioned ideas, maybe you could also think of weight reduction. Look into lighter weight body panels or a carbon fiber hood. Anything that makes the car lighter will help with speed.
