I Know, I know, but I will say it anyway.
I know an intake isn't that big of a deal to most people, but it is to me. I finally paid for a performance product with my own money. I bought my cold air intake. I got a HP one. It is nice and I love the sound. It looks good too. I feel a small power gain around 4000 and 6000 RPM. I am just 16 and I had to work a whole week to afford it. I just feel kinda proud. Next week is going to be a muffler then headers then custom piping.
I will post pics of my engine bay and intake in "Pics of Cars" topic.

congratulations, you're on your way!
just don't make the mistake of buying anything that's too engine-specific if you plan to swap a different engine later on. a header for a stock crx motor won't fit a b-series engine for example.
