Default Cold air or chip?
Which would be better? Not for just performance, but an over-all better car. Mpg and hp.

Ok. Should I get about 10-20 hp from the cai? And where can I get my car tuned?

It can. What you need to do is talk with the tuner and tell them exactly what you have and what you are going for (HP or MPG).
A tune can be set for very specific mods by a good tuner.
