I have the exhaust system and a K&N intake but thats it! I cant decide whether i want to spend my money on cosmetics or performance!

Considering the N20 produces 240+hp stock, a simple Stage 2 upgrade (piggyback/ECU flash tune, catless DP, intake) should get you there easy.
There are a number of N20 owners who have their cars producing M235i levels of power and torque with simple bolt-on additions. But be warned: the N20 has reliability weaknesses above a certain HP.
Do a search for "Stage 2" in this subforum. You should have no problem figuring out what's needed.
