Question tunning and improvements

Does anyone know some small less involved things I can do to speed up my IS300. I am looking for chip options, air filter makers. Anything that doesnt involve heavy work or me possibly breaking my warranty. have really found much info on this online.

When it comes to simple power, my IS3 wrote the book. I have a 2000 model, and all I've done to it mechanically is the cold air intake, and exhaust. It is much quicker compared to stock. It's pulled 15.5 in the quarter, as opposed to the stock run, which I think was 16.3 (?). It's all from Stillen, and the prices weren't insane like some places are. The intake was a bit more because of the aluminum velocity ring they use. It sits between the filter and the tube, and looks like a funnel cake in a way, but what it does is help the airflow go more directly into the intake, as opposed to swirling around. www.stillen.com. But the bottom line is, it's all bolt on stuff that was very easy to install, and it's made the car quick enough to shock a few BMWs and Eclipses out there. But, the car still falls victim to turbo powered vehciels. Sigh.
