Popping wheelies is not so much a matter of horsepower but of weight balance. Put enough weight behind the rear axle and the car will lift the front wheels off the ground every time you step on the gas. LOL

Then it all depends on what you want to do and how much you have to spend. You can start with the bolt on's as was already suggested. Cat back, headers, cold air which you already have and then you can start to work on the rear end , trans, heads etc. Are you looking to completely rebuild your motor to try to get the power you want?. How much horse power are you looking to get? And the questions go on. Again it all depends on what you want to do.
