Need Help Getting Started on my 96 Z

I just bought a 96 Z with 60k miles. The car is in amazing condition, and has the 6 speed and t-tops. Anyway, here's the problem, my first car was an '85 IROC, my second car a 93 Z with a six speed, and now i have my 96. Well my little brother bought my old car from me, and has since been talking about getting it faster....I don't want to be slower than my little brother!!!(haha) I was wondering if you guys could shoot me some ideas on some combos. I don't want to tear this car apart too bad, I don't have an unlimited budget, the car is a daily driver (in good weather), but I'd really like some good bolt-on ideas. I've been thinking exhaust, intake,.....any help would be great (if you could include what part, recommended manufacutrer, estimated cost, and power gains, that would be awesome!) Thanks Again

I would probably add a mail-order tune to the list, that is a good mod to make some power and it is very cost effective. If you do a "search" on each item listed in the post above, you will get endless posts going over different brands, costs, installation routines, ect.
