I was browsing on ebay and came across several overly in expensive intake systems, such as http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...38634

and i was wondering if they'd do the same as an AEM or Injen system, performance/fitment/bang-for-the-buck wise.

thanks

My brother got an E-bay brand on his 95. The piping is much smaller in diameter when compared to AEM and Injen. I got my Injen for cheap too, found it at the junk yard and got it for 5 bucks!! Didn't come with air filter or adapter though so I had to pick up a pop charger.

they ebay ones are decent for the money, i have one. just the fitment isnt always exact, and you might as well throw out the filter and get a k&n.

I don't know I've seen a cheapie come apart before, the endo of the cone just ripped off and sucked into te intake, luckily no big pieces into the engine, so just to be safe I spend te money for injen or aem, or K&N

thanks guys, keep the info comming, i think for now, im gonna go ahead and get an ebay one, since its under 30 so its not that big of a deal, since i already have an HKS filter.

maybe i'll go pay a visit to the junk yard tmr, see if i can get a steal hehehe.
