Best improvent with minimum initial cost...Nitrous. However, refilling the bottle continually will add up over time. If you use it very often, the cost of nirous will start to add up big time. It won't be so bad for a very occasional or light user.

Best improvent with higher cost...Turbo. Slap a turbo kit on your car and call it a day.

Don't spend too much time and money on intakes, headers, and exhaust. At best everything added up will net you around 30hp or so, but that is after tuning the car with a SAFC or AEM FIC. If that's all you're looking for then ok, if you want more then it is not possible to do(at least on a reasonable budget) unless you boost the engine. The GS300 does not make much power in NA form, but with a turbo under the hood it's a different story.
