Half decent exhaust system, K+N and a PCIII, I wouldn't bother with anything after that as the gains are tiny and the work expensive.
You might gain maybe 5bhp if you do the above and pay to have it set up on a dyno, crap for the amount it costs.

13/52 sprockets?!? Is the previous owner a stunter? That's horrible, no wonder your bike is slow, it has no top end power!
You could of course modify the engine itself to make it "bigger" - port and polish, pistons, cam, injectors. You can also add nitrous. But for that money you could almost buy a 1K and have the best of both worlds (which is awesome, btw
).
Honestly, if you've had a bike for two weeks and you already want it to be "faster", you aren't riding it properly, or you really just want a different kind of motorcycle.

13/52 is daft, not surprising you can't keep up with anything when you have to change gear every 2 seconds.
Get the OEM size or at most a few teeth up on the back, fecking around with sprockets for most people is pointless, of course they do it anyway because most people are also idiots.

But i got the 600 for cornering capabilities. I've been racing motoX since i was 14 and have been riding street bikes for a few years now this is just the first one i've owned. I'm a good rider(better than average, but not a great rider) I just always like to modify things and go faster.
If i go back to stock sprockets how much is it going to decrease my acceleration?

Sorry, but I'm just gonna back off here, because phrases like this just scream squid to me. Good luck with getting what you want.

No chance that you've maxed the capabilities of the f4i after owning it for 2 weeks and are already looking for more power. And riding friends street bikes for years doesnt count.
