sorry, you bought a 96, with a 12v 2.8.. performance should be taken off the list, because there is really nothing you can do

an exhaust, cat delete and intake might net you 5 horsepower

at least witht he 30v v6 you could supercharge it for 5 grand, no beans on the 12v though

Do you guys think i'd be able to put an exhaust, short shifter, and air intake? or is that out of the question?

yes, you can do all that im pretty sure. The only way you couldnt is if they dont make a short shifter for that year but you should be okay.

ya 18's sound good to me, all i really want to know though is what the specs of the rim should be, not size but how many lugs and the spacing and all of that so i can get rims that correctly fit my car.
