Before hauling off and spending thousands and thousands of $$$ on your car in the name of going faster, you should probably concentrate for a while on your driving first. Since you seem to be pretty focused on auto-x, run events for a few months, take driving schools, and focus on improving your driving skills. It's real easy to get caught up in the "need for speed" and have your head spinning with all the different ideas of what you want to change on your car... *but*, you'll probably find that you'll shave more off your run times by improving your driving than continually spending money on the car in the quest for more speed. Plus, it's a hell of a lot cheaper! Just the new coil-overs you did recently will probably make it a changed car out on the auto-x course, and you'll need some time to get used to that, explore the car's new limits and feel out the new handling balance.

Just some friendly advice and my opinion of course...
