K&N drop in filters and silicone post MAF smooth tubes from the Z1 store. Something around $200-$250 and it's roughly 10hp. Lightweight pulleys from Stillen or NST are about $189 and net ~10hp each (nonstackable). Get a used set of Stillen Gen3 intakes here on the forum for around $350-$400 for 17.5hp. Sometimes you can find a used Motordyne intake plenum for about that price, again around 10hp.

ebay test pipes (or used, preferably resonated to minimize rasp) + K&N panel filters + smooth tubes (e.g., cobb).
