    Welcome :D
    you can probably get an intake (either short ram or cold air intake), cat-back exhaust, and headers for performance. As with exterior, maybe clearing your corners (taking out the orange reflector in your turn signals) or a rear visor would be nice.

    search around the 8G performance section, plenty of info there as far as performance.
    here's a few pics of my setup...

    Megan cat-back exhaust


    s7 gauges


    EGR rear visor


    Subaru WRX injectors


    Mitsu. Outlander Intake Manifold


    search and you shall find...
    sorry for bombarding you with pics

    what does the outlander intake mani do? i just had mine replace when i moved out to AZ. it cost me like $1000 i felt a lil difference but not much from the old. How much was that cat back for you? Oh and thanx for the pics. Im a visual guy so it helped. And i know im asking a lot of questions but i only use Chevron gas, and i used to use Arco cuz it was cheaper. Does it really make a difference in performance or anything or am i just wasting my money?

    the outlander is the only intake manifold that will fit on the stock cylinder head its made of aluminum instead of the flimsy steel like our stock manifold. the outlander also has a 60mm throttle body vs. the 52mm stock throttle body... its a bolt on performance mod and it gives you the piece of mind that the stock manifold will not crack between the TB flange and the body of the manifold like so many others have experienced probably the reason the OP had his changed.

    you would need a manifold from a 03 non mivec outlander

    i think you in norway have the same engines like we haven in germany an austria..
    2.0 TD 8V 90HP 4zyl.
    2.0 16V 136HP 4zyl.
    2.4 GDI 150HP 4zyl.
    2.5 24V 163HP V6

    the 2.4 US is the bored out 2.0 EU-Engine...
    so i think the most US-Parts for the USDM 2.4 should fit the EDM 2.0 engine..

    the 2.4 in EU is the GDI engine. (gasoline dirket injektion)

    your manifold is not the same as the 8G, that looks like the 7G mani just reverse facing

    My cat-back was 340 shipped from a vendor on eBay. My Outlander IM i got from underrated, it's a bigger throttle body and stronger material than the stock monifold; it won't snap near the TB. bigger TB = faster throttle response, i saw better gains in HP, maybe 2-4 at most. Definitely worth investing in, you don't want your manifold snapping on you.

    the WRX injectors are for the turbo, it's 420cc but if you remove the tips off, they run at 720cc. (i might do it later on depending on the duty cycle with the turbo)

    that'a a different topic, but i use Hess gas most of the time, although the Chevron factory by my house may open up again, who knows...

    i assume it's all the same with the variance of different additives
