Just go for some aluminum parts where they are needed. Dont go overboard or you will hurt the speed of your motor. Some good places are like the shock towers and some suspension parts as well. other upgrades are things with electronics so you should ask the people who own one.

If you dont want to spend a heap, the best place to start is a qual air filter, i sugget motorsaver. also a tuned pipe will help, but its probably more scconomical in the end to upgrade your motor. HPIs engine exchange is pretty cheap.
