Since money is tight, I'd recommend going one of two ways. I port the stock lower intake for $100 labor + shipping - you'll have about $130 in it including shipping. If your engine is in good condition you will get about 20HP. I have many references and pictures. If you are interested, PM me with an e-mail address so I can attach the pictures. I attached one of one of my ported lowers next to a stocker.

The second is look for a good used intake. An Explorer intake from a 95-EARLY 97 will make as much power as a Cobra and can be bought for less. Cobra is also a good choice but they are typically pricier $250 and up.
