Get an intake and an exhaust, you will notice the responsiveness of the throttle immediately. The install is easy, only a few tools needed and should take only about 30mins- 1hr. the exhaust adds to the free flow of air, and they are available anywhere.

$400, more expensive than the K&N but i think it is worth it. it takes away that restrictive feeling from the pedal, and makes it sooo much better to drive.
