Inexpensive. And what about that warranty?

Well, I'm an aspiring tuner, after playing the Need for Speed series (just bought Carbon today) and I would like to add something to spruce up the horse power without killing the warranty. Is there anything out there (inexpensive, pleeease. at least as inexpensive as possible; tight budget) that would add a little more kick when you press that accelerator?
Thanks!

Maverick, by intake you mean cold air intake, correct? I apologize for being somewhat of a "newbie" but I'm only starting to learn the parts of the engine and such. Do you know where to find a good quality, relatively inexpensive intake for a Honda Civic HX, 2003? Thanks!

Seriously, an intake won't "spruce up" your power at all. What is your definition of "inexpensive"? If you don't care about the warranty and want a go-quick-somewhat part, get some nitrous.
