Heres the thing about upgrading engines: you can't really just buy one thing. Everything has to compliment one another. For example, it makes no sense to buy a supercharger if you don't have the fuel rails and headers to contain such power.
If you are looking for a quick fix, though, there are a couple things you can do...
1. Cold Air Intake- the colder the air that enters the chamber is, the better it combusts. 6-10 HP increase, increased fuel economy, throatier send when you rev up.
2. new Radiator- Fresher air, same as before
3. New headers- the easier exhaust can exit, the more efficiently your engine can function.
4. New exhaust- same as before... 10 hp increase or more maybe?
5. Decrease weight- take out some spare stuff... even 50lbs will make a difference in top speed, and especially accel.
