Unfortunately, unless you are doing the installs yourself thats all you'll get for $1000. With the gear, springs, install, and then a tuner to correct the gears you'll be over a $1000. I'd get a CAI, tuner, and gears for now. Just because it will be less hassle to get the tuner programmed for the gear and CAI all at the same time.

what kind of performance? drag? do you have auto or manual? the tuner will be great for tighter shift points in the autoand maximise you gains for the CAI, as well as remove the throttle delay. 4.10s will help acceleration quite well, but traction may be an issue for you. let us know more about your car and we can suggest more specifically to your car.
