Default HX upgrades, help

I have a buddy with a 2005 HX 5 speed. He has exhaust already, but would like more power. What would help the most power wise? His budget is about $500.

yah like they all said bolt ons dont do anything for our motors the best way to get power into your buddies car is to either turbo it or K swap which im sure you know will cost alot more than 500$ so theres your ansewer
