What Mods do you guys suggest if this was the only car that you had to work with... my car feels so inferior now...

Just do Air filter (quality, not universal) and cat-back exhaust. sound nicer and probably rev a bit easier. Decent suspension and tyres would make it a giggle on the twisties.
I once had a SEAT cordoba with a 2.0 16v in, the come in at 150bhp. I was chasing down this stripped out polo with ease but we hit a set of sharp bends, i braked hard and he just kept his foot down. Dont under-estimate the power of handling to put a smile on your face.
Also don't feel inferior, everyones gotta start with what they can get, got my licence at 17, didn't have a car over 80bhp till i was 21
