Improve your air intake
- flow in cooler air into ur engine bay/airbox. (CAI)
- Heat Shield ur airbox
- use Hybrid setup for auto cars (Open pod modification) to increase airflow but maintain low end torque.

Lighten ur car
- Remove all unnecessary items from ur boot(cleaning kits, bottles of spare water for cleaning)
- change to lightened spare tyre
- Hatch door is kinda heavy... see what u can operate to lighten it.
- Alloy rims (keep it to 15")
- Avoid ICE
- CF Bonnet
- Lightweight Seats
- *EXTREME - remove sound proof materials from doors

Personal
- Stay light footed unless overtaking
- accelerate smoothly and steadily
- use highways rather then urban roads
