Spark plugs. I reccomend NGK Coppers. They are only about a buck each.
Copper is a better conductor than Platinum, and the NGK coppers have a "V" electrode to get some of the benefits of multiple spark/larger spark.
The downside, they only last 20000 miles. So you'll run through 5 sets of coppers vs one set of platinums, but the coppers will give you better spark.
For wires, there are ViTek, Nology, Magnacor, and some others I cant remember.
KORE carries the ViTek wires, MHP carries the Magnacor wires. Nology's you have to get from "speed" shops, but I STRONGLY advise against them. They are pure Hype/crap, and the company has horrible customer service.

In regards to CAI's, at the moment, no-one has one out for the elantra, but Shark Racing will have one within a couple of months, as will KORE and MHP.
