well to start do a search for performance mods on this forum there are thousands of different ones. the first thing you should do is get a K&N high flow air filter and drop that in then you can do a timing bump and so on. do a search and then go from there

High flow cat and good flowing muffler. I prefer flowmaster but that's just me. Swap the spark plugs with a set of motorcraft or autolite plugs. Dont waste your money on fancy plugs or champions. Get a good set of wires. I have FRPP 9mm wires and they work great. Get a cap and rotor from Accel or MSD. They use brass terminals for better spark. Here's a link so you can get an idea.
