just my opinion but racing seats are fun and you can find a set of 4 points for cheap too. This seller on ebay sells a pair for 249 free shipping. has a bunch of different colors to. Going to pick up a pair of pink ones for my wifes birthday.

ORIGINAL: 99 Neon

Turbo pistons
wont do any good without a turbo unless he wants the car to be really slow....plus for $500 he could get the pistons, but will also need rods, and alot of engine work.....$500 is barely a chip of the iceberg when its comes to internal engine upgrades

i see u have the strut tower braces and thats good for the top but u should think about the bottom. what would really help ur handling would be anti-roll bars (sway bars) also drilled and slotted rotors are a good idea but expect to also get some pads with the right material. just make sure they dont send u 4 lug rotors if u have 5 lug like they did to me. god that was a hassle! i meen seriouslyi think they only produced the 4 lug 95-96! if u go with summit you can get reclineable race seats for about $180 and that would still leave you with enough $ for a hella nice stearing wheal. i went with momo for mine and its nice for how i like to hold the wheal. maybe even some more agressive rubber. lotta things available for 500 bucks.
