Short Ram intake is a good place to start. I paid $88 for mine, and it works just as well as k&n. Go to www.speedyperformanceparts.com if interested. what year and trim do you have.

You can also get you high performance Spark plugs. that will add a good bit of hp to your cavy. I installed my spark plugs not to long ago and i sure can feel the difference.

I put in AC Delco Platinum Spark Plugs, MagnaFlow 8.5mm ignition wires, BOMZ cold air intake, and a catback dual tip muffler and I can definitly feel the difference. More HP and better MPG at that.
