If you're looking to make some more power I would suggest looking into the PI cylinder head and intake manifold swap.

A new set of gears will really help with seat of the pants feel. Is it automatic or manual transmission?

I would recommend 3.73 gears and a transmission shift kit.

Gears would bet better. A programmer is just a step in a line of mods to make them all work together. I wouldn't get one unless you plan on doing some other internal mods.
