VX Intake Questions

I have been considering installing a new intake system (such as K&N) for my 1992 VX. Manufacturers claim that this helps the engine breath better, boosting hp while improving mpg at the same time. However, I have not been able to find an intake specifically for the VX (other Civic models galore). Here's my questions:

1. Do the claims of improved mpg and hp hold true for the VX model in particular (does it justify the cost)?

2. Can anyone point me to a website to get the correct intake for my model of Civic? Reusable filter element is a definite plus.

The VX is a great vehicle whose design was way ahead of it's time. However, it's lone glaring flaw is that it is a bit underpowered. A little more hp wouldn't hurt.
