Future plans for my G. What do you guys think?

So I just finished with my coilovers and wheels setup, replaced drive belts with Gates belts couple days ago, all maintenance up to date until 120K.

These are my next mods that I need and want to do:

-Motordyne swaybars w/Powergrid front and rear endlinks
-Energy suspension polyurethane bushings complete kit
-Motordyne ART pipes
-MREV2 & 5/16th spacer
-Tune

Any other suggestions that you guys recommend to do? I really want to do performance work, but other than a turbo route, I can't seem to see anything else to do for performance gains besides what what I listed.

Thanks for reading, and I hope you guys give me your thoughts and opinions.

I would also do an exhaust before you do your tune. It will open up the flow and can create more power if you get the right exhaust. I got an additional 12/11 hp/tq from my cat back MD exhaust after a re-flash of my tune.

I have an exhaust, cat-back...I going to buy the ART pipes for sure, but I'm still thinking about the MREV2 or not. What do you think Blue Dream? My buddy and cousin are telling to skip all this play and go turbo. But my gf of 5 years is going to need a car pretty soon and I wanna help her get her G coupe before I turbo.

Honestly, do you really recommend headers though SD? And about the 1 pc drive-shaft, can you link me to where I can read up more on that?
I was looking about a 3.5 to 3.9 final drive gear earlier as well, pretty interesting.

headers w/cams, yes. 3.9fd would be nice too.

Thanks, and where can I get some DLC coated bucket lifters besides trying to find them from an HR engine?

if you do get headers, look at the Cobb intake tube. it'll help fight the heat added by the headers, also cutting some vents into your hood would help too.
