In short. The minor upgrades are the ones that, you need the least. They are the fine touches to a heavily built car.

Intake exhaust aids throttle response and in cert a in weather conditions improved accelerations. It makes it less difficult to get consistent acceleration times. Like if the car goes to 60 5.1 n the quarter 13.3. with intake n exhaust you can achieve that more steadily. Add headers and cams, not that 5.1 may be 4.7ish.
Supercharge it you may be 4.4
Tune the suspension you may get 4.2? Your quarter may drop to mid 11?
Or u can go tt n go even lower. Down to the 10s

But modding is subjective to what you want. Whether its looks, or a smoother ride? Better sound. Only you can determine if its worth it.
