Default a very simple and free mod you can do is called the swisscheesed-airbox

It results in a much crisper throttle responce, as well as an awesome sound. It growls above 2.5-3k rpms and sounds much better. The additional air could also raise the mpg slightly as well.

i wish i had the link to the procedure, but if you know the basics of removal and generally how to basically take the airbox out it is easy. But once the airbox is out, generally you just need to drill some holes into the bottom of the box (pre-filter) with a doorknob drilling drill bit. do a search for it and ill see if i cna find any info for you as well. feel free to email me if you decide to do it and need help!

Default i went a little overboard

i put like 10-12 3/4" holes in the bottom cause i didnt have the 2.5" doorknob drillbit. How big were the 3 holes you put?
