37$ intake...good or bad?
 
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/99-00...QQcmdZViewItem


what do you guys think? i heard its really not worth it to pay 250$ for a brand name intake since they all do the same ****. my buddy says i should just get that intake and throw a k&n fliter on it. let me know if u guys know anything about these intakes.

B-rett 11-14-2005 05:56 PM

looks crappy like walmart brand lol

Just2fast 11-14-2005 05:59 PM

I hate fat girlz 11-14-2005 06:01 PM

wtf where are the 19$ ones??? if u find it post the link here lol

Ghostalker 11-14-2005 06:02 PM

yes, this is a comonely asked question on MANY forums.
They all do the same basic thing, and while the name brand ones tend to be a tiny bit better, you will never feel the difference, and the cost difference can be described as astronomical. you are better off buying the ebay one, and getting springs, and maybe a new shift knob... or a 'fancy' intake. w/e ure preference is. I have an Ebay intake.

go to ebay dont go to motors...type in "mustang cold air intake" it will bring up like 400 results and their allmost all by it now prices from 18 to 50 bucks

I had the ebay one before the blower and it worked fine. I ended up cutting the bend off and made it into a straight shot (the bend into the fender)

So that it was directly behind the headlight and I'd take the headlight out at the track.

If its red it should be good for atleast 10-15 fwhp

dont buy that gay intake. those things will never stay together. theres too many parts to it and the fit is horrible. dont waste your money even if it is only 16 dollars. the factory setup is waay better than that. I knew a guy that had the same one but his was UPR. the same thing as what you are looking to get. He ended up selling it and buying a MAC intake.

whoaaa you ugly 11-14-2005 07:19 PM

yup its red

MattJ 11-14-2005 07:26 PM

As said above, buy yourself a nice 12" filter. I forgot the part number for k&n but you can find it on their website. It will give you a larger filter and remove your stock air box. The difference between that and the cold air intake is very very minimal plus you save tons. Thats the best route...

Just2fast 11-14-2005 07:30 PM

matt so what exactly are u saying eliminate the box that the filter sits in and just attach a big ole k&n filter to the rubber stock tube and like stick it throug the fenderwelll or what????im a lil confused here.

MattJ 11-14-2005 07:33 PM

Yea, its simple. Delete that box and put a nice big breathable filter on there.m Its about just as good as a cold air intake at 1/4 of the cost. Plus if you drag race and remove your headlight, it acts as functional ram air.

Just2fast 11-14-2005 07:36 PM

alrighttyyy then i think ima just say f*** the whole shiny chrom tubular sexy looking cai and just buy a K&N for 45 bucks and thats the end of it however i do have one more ??? how do u recomend attatching the filter to the stock tube...and ur not talkin bout the stock k&N filter right u mean a big one like you would put ona cai

Islander03GT 11-14-2005 07:52 PM

leave the stock intake.

I splurged for the K&N FIPK when I bought mine..... Always had good luck with K&N products. I've got them in every car I own plus my motorcycle.

MattJ 11-15-2005 07:12 AM

Go on k&n's website and find the 12 inch filter. It comes with everything you need.
