Default intake system

i was just wondering if the intake on ebay is really worth it? I didnt know just because the price was so low; or if i really had too i could get a different intake from a different website. i dont know what is better to save money or go all out just on an intake system. does the intake system make your engine louder or does it just add 8 to 10 hp?

some say yes, some say no... it probably all matters on how much youve been drinking
