      When i got the car it had a crap ebay intake, i havent had the chance to change it, it doesn't seven have a heat sheild, its basically just a hose to a cone filter, and the exhaust i got with it is a fart can lol, i plan on changing that as well.

        Your best bet with the stock AFM is to run the stock air box with a good filter and make sure you get the velocity stack in there.
        As for exhaust long tube headers and 2.5 single.

            Putting the stock air box back in will likely gain a bit of performance. After that a chip. From there on out it gets expensive.
            The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

              i have a small list, of stuff that cost under 1000 bones each, (let me knwo if these are good ideas)
              -Legit Cold air intake
              -Headers to a borla muffler, deleted cat
              -Polished, ported head
              -Polished ported intake manifold.
              -Engine chip
              -Cam.
              I will not be doing all of these at the same time, lol it will be a long process.
