If you do not want to spend a lot of money than go with a KN replacement filter and grab an RPI air scoop. Run you about $150 and get you about 10HP. Other than that everything else will run a lot more $$$.

Nitrous will 'make it faster without spending so much money'. At least you'll be able to feel a difference with nitrous as opposed to an air scoop/filter.
