Default Need HP fpr Civic LX 03

Hi guys, I own a Civic LX 03, nice looking car, love it but it's extremely weak, it lacks too much power (115 hp it's nothing compared to Jettas, and other cars). I would like to add some horsepower without spending big money since I'm not planning to keep it for too long.
So, the question is: What can I do to add some hp the cheap way?

For drag racing? Have you considered nitrous oxide?

For the money, suspension mods tend to give more noticeable feel for the buck. Plus, you can always remove them and sell them seperately when you sell the car.

Nitrous Oxide is the cheapest it gets.

if you are not planning to keep it for too long then why hook it up and decrease its value :dunno:........never just go half way. either you go all out or do nothing......otherwise you waste money.
