I think with some high ratio roller rockers, exhaust, extractors and the CAI you'd be going good. With the tune I'd PM Delco Wizzard on here.

For The Win. And they will set you back around AU$800 + shipping. They are easy enough to fit yourself with a little mechanical knowledge.

A little advice though, If you dont feel comfortible picking up tools to work on a car yourself, then modifying cars is not for you. Paying for other people to do mods for you is rediculously expensive. On my cars, the only things I ever pay someone else to do is glass fitting and tuning - everything else I do with my own hands, so I know its done right (or atleast how I think it should be).

Things like precise machine work are an exception to this rule, obviously.

I dont know, I dont use either. I cut a hole in the bottom of my air box, through my guard and I have a big pipe drawing air from behind the bumper. Works pretty well, but not for everyone. I can weld a patch in and put it back to factory if need be.
