Uhhh no, it does not. Did you read the threads in the links rldzhao provided? A FD mod may get you one tenth to 60. ONE TENTH. It is basically in the noise or a drivers race.
FD mods can make a car
feel faster but not really faster by any significant amount.
There has not been a single instrumented and statistically significant test showing any real world gains from FD mods for this car. Just a lot of folks justifying their huge expenses with "it feels awesome" "X % more torque", etc.
There is no such thing as a free lunch. If all a FD did was to give you more wheel torque you would simply increase it to some absurd level and have a magic car with infinite (or near infinite) wheel torque. Until you understand why this does not work you shouldn't waste your money. Hint it is not just mpg as to why the OEMs do not do this. It is about time averaged power.
Get some pulleys or a cat delete or software, these are the biggest bang for the buck mods that will give more power and thus more performance.
