check out this site http://www.intense-racing.com/Mercha...nt.mvc?screen= CTGY&Store_Code=IR&Category_Code=3800_Indu ction


look at the fender wall intakes. now, they wont have a kit for your car, but use that to get some ideas going, and also check out the 3 inch flexible tubing. very good stuff there. not just a regular plastic tube. its a heavy duty rubber, with a metal liner and smoothe inside.


and also the universal k&n cone filter.A coupler couplers, and some creativity and you will have a great intake.

HOw much you think the cone filter and tubing will cost. It sounds like a good idea. just as long as i keep o2 sensor in the system right??

there is no o2 in your intake. there should be a IAT (intake ait temp), but no o2. thats just in the exhaust.


i recently did mine with 3.5" and it was about $100. but my TB is 3.5". yours in probably 3", so yours may be cheaper, as 3" tubing and couplers will be much easier to come by.
