For $1000 I would buy an Alpina airbox assembly...but it probably costs even more than this...and it probably is not available if you don't have an Alpina car

Depending on availability in your area and assuming a favorable exchange rate, you might want to take a look at a Dinan cold air intake, $1300US, as a nice alternative to the Alpine unit.
