I've only had my '99 SEL about 9 months and I haven't really done anything yet. I'm on a limited budget, so I was wondering what the best first steps would be in tuning this car. It's a daily driver, but I want to take it to the strip and show off my tail lights to the hondas. where should I start?

Read this carefully a few times.

thanks, I don't know why I didn't think of going there first. :o
