-As for mods I'd recommend starting with just a BMS JB4 tuner and set it to the auto-tune map 5. It's easy, safe, can reverse it and will make the car more responsive and much more powerful.

Beyond that you're getting into cosmetic mods and deeper water with power mods that I wouldn't recommend until you're very familiar with how the car drives and looks.
