Most common mod is a I/H/E, A new Intake, Be it a modified Factory box, or a Cold Air Intake allows your engine to breathe better, New Exhaust Header, then a Larger free flowing Exhaust, 2" or 2.5" should be good for your application.

That will set you up good. You will love the better feel of your car and still love the Milage. :thumb:

Take a look at the DIY List under engine. They give alot of good ideas there. Including taking your Factory airbox and making it breath better. :thumb:

Really depends where you want to have the difference in throttle response and where you live, there is no "better" or "worse" imho.
