Cat back exhaust and extractors will make a good difference. After that, probably a regrind cam, XH snorkel, and an air filter (snorkel and filter won't make a huge difference).

If you want a reasonably quick 6 cyl NA car that you don't mind being a bit rough around the edges then you have a pretty good starting point with the EA 5 speed. Get a decent zorst and extractors and then a cam and it will go pretty well.

1st thing i would do is chuck the diff in the bin, and get 3.7 gears witha good lsd, tho old ea's had a 2.77 ratio, next would be extractors then a k&N pod with cold air duct, let her breath then work on cams and headwork

otherwise.. cam/headers/2.5 inch exhaust/colp air intake/heavy duty clutch..and 3.45 diff gears should make a nice difference... -as it did on my EA S-PACK... |

ok forget the bonnet washers lol. my ea fairmont ghia already has a lsd in it. i almost spun the thing the other day (gotta watch the lsd's). i dunno wat ratio tho. itll be in the workshop manual but that means i have to walk all the way outside to look in it lol
