Intake

Hey guys, i am brand new here. And to be honest with you, i am not a ricer at all. I do have a Chevy S10 dropped and all the other good stuff. So go on and rag me for that....but in all seriousness, i have a great friend looking to throw on some extra Hp at the cheapest, is cold air intake the way to go?? and if so what brands can you trust. Theres nothing worse then going and getting something that just doesnt happen. btw, shes got a 2000 accord. let me know all ya can. Thanks guys
