search man alot of threads about this but i say intake or plugs and wires and oil change. Cold air intakes make more power than short ram but not that much to matter. Short ram is louder since its shorter thought. If you get a cold air best thing to do is a ebay kit then go get a k and n filter

First you want to make sure it's running perfectly before you start upgrading. I just bought a 97 base model and it had some choppy acceleration until I replaced the air filter. It's a simple thing but you couldn't see light through it and the car was choking.
Once you have all of the basic things tuned up then you should decide how much more power you need and why you need it.
Personally, I love these cars when they're bone stock but others like to tear them apart.
Take your time and buy high quality parts so you don't have to replace the same thing multiple times.

you should do general maintenance and then when **** starts to break, you upgrade. if the **** ain't broke don't fix it.
