If u wanna do it, then do it right. Since ur in CT, I suspect u will wanna keep it NA. First I recommend a K&N or BMC flatpan filter. If u go bolt a cone on, u will get the sound, but it will lower ur performance. That should set u back up to a grand max. Secondly a full exhaust is what I recommended with braches. That should be about 5 grand. After that u might wanna look at coil overs, strut bars etc, so u can hold it properly in the corners. And thats pretty much all u can do on a tight budget. Maybe a motorswop could be a better idea, but u gotta be careful with that one. A lot can go wrong.
