I'm finally thinking of doing some modifications to my '99 Silver OBS, with the idea not to race, but to make my drive to work (1hr each way with moderate traffic) more fun.

What's the first step to take? Seems like upgrading the wheels/suspension gets some votes. Can worthwile improvements to the 2.2l stock engine be done, or should I save to buy a ej20?

Anything else?

Thanks for getting this n00b started
