Best band for you buck is going to be gears. They won't give you horsepower, but they will increase acceleration greatly. I am getting them done this spring/summer.

They are about $200 for the gears and then you have to pay to have them installed. That can vary from $150-500 depending on the place you go and how much work you have done.

a couple hundred bucks will get you no where. You need a couple thousand to notice a big difference. Things like CAI,UDP, TB and Plenum, exhaust are what you should look at

After gears get an X-pipe and cat-back. Great sound and some horsepower. There are several complete bolt-on lists on the forum. Use the "search" and you'll find opinions on everything.
