Default Advice Needed

I have a 2003 Mustang 6 cyl. What are some relatively simple things I can do to improve the performance (speed it up) other than trading it in on a GT or Cobra. It is a great car premium package, etc. Just wish it had a little more get up and go.
Are there articles on this site or other I can go to? What web sites would help. Seems most are aimedat the big V8's.

The only way to make the hood functial is to buy a new hood or cut a hole in it. A cold air intake is a tube that goes from the throttle body to the fender well where the air cleaner is. Your best bet is a cold air intake and underdrive pullies. Also get some exhaust

Gears pullies and a K&N. The CAI doesnt do much for 99+stangs. The stocker is pretty good.
