I'm just wondering what you guys have for air intakes and filters and how much you paid for them. I don't have a bunch of money and am looking how to spend the least amount of money on a food intake. I thought about piecing one together off Amazon but i don't know yet

Don't waste your money. Buy a quality filter and keep it clean. The amazon/ebay "cold air" intakes breath hot engine air, negating any advantage drawn from the extra breathability. You'll hear it and may convince yourself you're picked up power, but that's about where it'll end.

If you are doing it for anything other than it sounds cool, you are wasting your $. If you just want the it sounds cool, then get an adapter and a filter.....

I put a filter adapter and a filter on my lancer. it is now a short ram. yes it gets warm engine compartment air, but while actually driving, the engine air isn't that much hotter than ambient air temp.... I didn't do it for power, I did it for the I am cool and did a mod and the BAWWWWHHHHHHHHHH sound..... My gas mileage has stayed the same... I do feel that it pulls harder and longer now, but it could jsut be that I leave it in a gear longer to hear the BBBBBBBAAAAAAAWWWWWWHHHHHHHHH sound.....

So get a good quality air filter? They are all near $200 and that is a lot that's why I'm wondering if there is anything cheaper that works pretty close to just as good

Battery/intake swap. Pull in from the fender. Done.

You want to get crazy, find a supra AFM and swap that in then open up your exhaust.

You can do as OOPS says, or what I'm saying is use a quality air filter in the stock box/location. I've run several different brand air filters, from the cheapest to the best house brands and a k&n. None, not one, gave me more power pulling the hill to work or any noticed difference in anything else. I usually run a napa gold or something, just don't waste your money on a fram

I have a K&N sitting in my garage if you want it. I tried a K&N, then i tried the eBay ram intake, now I have this because I have dual batteries.

I like this the best, and I'm working on a passenger side snorkel to pull in colder air when I'm crawlin.. right now my electric fan just rams hot air into that back corner..

Is it the full air intake? or just the filter? How much would you want for it?

It's just the filter insert for the stock intake box. Honestly, unless you're going to do dual batteries, just keep the stock box. It's not really worth the headache and "feels" to 'upgrade' these. The engineers did really good with the tech they were working with. Heck, even with today's intake 'mods', there's really not much room for improvement... The K&N filter DOES have more surface area though, which allows more air flow than stock. I remember I did the calculation, I can't find the data I recorded though.. (d'oh!)

But if you're interested, I'd ship it CONUS to ya for $15. I think it's about $8 or 12 for a flat rate box... heck, I'll clean it for ya too

Could you post a picture of it so that I can see if we are talking about the same thing. I'm new to this so before I buy it from you I just want to make sure. Thank you

It's the K&N stock filter replacement. It looks like the stock rectangular air filter. Thought I texted you, but just saw this post, sorry.

It's not a problem and yes I got your text thank you
