If you are looking for acceleration I believe changing your final drive would give you the biggest gain in acceleration for about 1k. I personally would use the 1k to do something like replace the stock hu with a DD nav unit or something of the sort though since this is a benefit which you will see and use every single day.

Typically with exhaust you want to work your way from the back of the car to the front. Get the spacer and look for a used cat back exhaust. This will make your car sound better but you will really need a tune to get the most out of the mods. Search through the threads and you will answer most of your own questions.

If you have the G35 sedan you can keep the engine cover on.
If you have the G35 coupe it won't fit.
