please tell me what other mods i can do and links onto where i can buy them and how much gain. im also looking for a short throw shifter(links please)

axialflow.com for short shifter... and i reccomend searching a bit because your thread gives me the vibe that you just want everyone else to look up the threads for you.

Not to be a dick but you can search just as easily as we can

You might browse through the good guy/bad guy forum for a feel for who you can and can't do business with. If you find a particular deal that looks inviting, posting here for opinions will usually bring out someone who's dealt with that item or dealer.

And just visit the vendor section of our forums too. Please support them as much as you can. Without them we could be buying random stuff on ebay.

I can't say as I've never dyno'd it, but the CobbAP with MM tune, supported by the BHR ignition made a noticeable "butt dyno" improvement.

The AFE short shifter made a nice man-machine interface improvement as well.

So, if nothing else I would heartily recommend those three mod's.

The stock brakes/rotors are actually quite good but I wanted better aesthetics and also low noise/dust.

The stock intake and exhaust are also quite good so modding those is more 'ear of the beholder' than anything else.
