First upgrade on my GTS

I just bought a Lancer 09 GTS (CVT). What are some quick inexpensive upgrades to do without getting in over my head? Im new to this platform never owned a import. I love the car but want to get a little more bang for my buck. Couldn't afford the Evo or Ralliart so maybe next time.

Thanks

Nothing replaces the feel of a good exhaust upgrade. The SE Greddy Exhaust looks to be a good option.

Right after that I would grab the sprintbooster. You will never use Sport mode again. All D driving

After I bought my GTS I bought an exhaust and the Fujita Intake and it was great. Made the car meaner and added some bang as well. Next, I went with Tein S-Tech lowering springs to get rid of the awful wheel gap
