Parts alone could be anywhere between $300 - $600 depending on what you buy and this doesn't include what you'll have to pay for installation.
If I got a regularly priced cold air intake, a K&H filter, regular wires/plugs, and a free flowing exhaust, what would the service charge come out to be around?



What is the range of cash I'm looking out dishing out here?


$500-1500? $1000-2000? What?

Since you can't do any of the work yourself, it's hard to say what the hourly charge would be for someone to do your wires/plugs and exhaust. We could show/tell you how to put a K&N filter in and do away with the restrictions in the filter boxes.

K&N filter about $32.00, Champion double platinum plugs (set of 4) about $25.00. Decent set of plug wires about $50.00. Single stainless steel Cat-back exhaust between $250-500

PTHart,

Welcome to the forums. Not a whole lot you can do for the non-turbo PT except keep it well tuned and maybe a less restrictive exhaust system. Cruisers were meant to "Cruise" except for the 5% of Turbo owners that want to take on the Ricers. If you look thru the forums you'll see that "speed cost money". If you have cash to spare, you'll find plenty of help here to spend it and lots of advice. Enjoy the ride.
