A tune from a good company like ipd will be the best performance mod you'll ever get I love my tune.

K&N is the only one available, well BSR has an intake but it's mad expensive.
An iPd Tune would be the first way to go but.......
I'd hold off until you can get a DP and exhaust at the same time. You can go directly to Stage II. Other wise you'll pay $895 for the tune then another (IIRC) $395 for the stage II upgrade.
iPd's softloader is on sale right now too. Only $895, down from $1298

I have iPd's sofware on both my R's and I will use them every time for tuning!
