As for making your car FASTER, there's plenty of different approaches. The bigger questions are "How much do you want to spend?" and "How Fast do you want to make it?" Someone who is a car noob (is this your first sports coupe?), I'd stick with Exhaust/intake/tune/better braking (gripper pad) etc. 332 HP should be plenty of power. Many of us Z owners are VERY happy with the stock power and handling. Just my of course.
