Change oil at 3000 miles
Change spark plugs at least every 6 months if not sooner
Change fuel filter every year

Make sure you have a great tune and quality parts....from there its just the same as I do on any performance car. I hope that your the type of person who has a performance car and actually checks on things and opens to hood once in awhile.....I know to many ppl who do performance and just never even check anything and have wal-mart do their oil changes.....

Everyone else has just about covered it. Like amimaxima said. Keep an eye on your oil level. Also keep an eye on your coolent level. Once every couple months bleed your cooling system properly. Other than what everyone else and I have stated it's common sense. Good luck!

+1 on checking your oil, especially if your car burns oil. low oil will spin a bearing in a heart beat and take out the whole motor. check the feed line to make sure no holes get rubbed into it. happened to me and lost all the while driving and spun a bearing.
