CHEAP and POWER do not go together.......

Get a CAI and call it a day if your really planning on boost .....

a CAI will do nothing for him
You have a D-series engine. You really will not get much out of it unless you boost.

k&n drop in air filter w/crower stg2 cam and a chipped & properly programmed p28 would make for a fun setup.

Just a quick question. Do you have a 5spd or AT? If you're going to say AT then don't bother with mods right now. Save up for a 5spd swap, do that, THEN start saving up to piece together a turbo kit. There is a lot of good information out there on how to do this on the cheap, you just have to look for it. I can tell you from experience that patience is extremely necessary if you're going to build a decent ride. Good luck.
