The factory system is a cold air intake. You might gain 5 hp from a commercial kit. The best system is the factory.

change your stock air filter for a k&n that'll fit in that box, open the exhaust by cutting out the catalytic converter and puttin a nice sounding performance muffler. keep in mind this truck was built with the sole intention of being a little work truck, 121 hp and barely revving to 5500 rpm. you cant get alot of ponies out of it without machine work to the block and head.

Changing out the stock filter for K&N is not going to gain any power. And by any, I mean you won't gain any performance at all. The stock filter will flow more air than the engine does. What a K&N will do is let dirt into your engine and that will decrease power.
