Default du ya think he was talkin' more about piping from down at the air dam? ...i dunno

when most people (ricer friends of mine) talk "cold air intake", usually it involved some sort of scoop at the nose of the car, or else the blangin' ricers who buy a mini intercooler kit specifically for intake air.

maybe it's just my warped definition... i dunno

check yah later

Default I did read your post. Making DIY CAI is not much of a learning....doing timing belt or clutch is

Btw, last time I saw your car you had cone filter in there, no?

Default for me thats what i want to learn...i dont want to learn to do a timing belt?

thats what interests me more than doing a timing belt or clutch. Yes i have a cone setup, but have heard there are better gains with cold air setups. You had a cold air setup in your 90 right?
