Where did you guys get yours from. Ive been loking online for one and I havnt really found a resaonable price yet. I was looking for the AEM but if theres a good deal on an Injen let me know. I thought about EBay but right now im have an issue w/a guy who riped me off (on a grill ). So i dont wanna go that route. So if you know a good site please let me know.

Just check out the Ecelica store!!

www.suprastore.com [suprastore.com] if you want the Blitz Intake, but yeah EC store has CAI on sale

Whats an AEM bypass valve?

it's incase your filter is submerged in water, this prevents hydrolock

when and if your Intake gets submerged in water, the air will get sucked in through this vavle rather then through the Intake and suck up the water, but it lose overall Performance, not alot, but enough not to need it, just dont submerge your Intake, dont go through big puddles, use common sense

there is a used rod millen Intake on ebay right now, its what i have, i have had no problems at all with mine.
crap, didnt relize you had a gt, nevermind...

werd

what were you looking for anywayz, Cold Air Intake or Short Ram Intake!!

I want a CAI. When you mean sermerg do you mean like when you wash your engine? and how would a puddle possilbly get ur Intake wet? to that one guy that said ebay. im pissed about ebay this guy just ripped me for $16.01. awwww

washing your car wont harm the filter, it's only when it's raining and you have to cross a road that's flooded, deep enough for the filter to get submerged 'cuz the filter is by the wheel well

no not washing ur engine. they mean like ur driving and their is a huge puddle in the middle of the road. you drive over it causing the water to go everywhere underneith ur car. the water hits the filter of ur Intake and since this is how ur engine breaths, it takes a deep breath in and sucks all that water that is on ur filter. you might not think that that is all bad but it is. when the water hits ur engine it decreaces Performance by making hot spots in your engine due to it evaporating. the bypass value makes it so only air goes into your engine

Props to the Ecelica store ...go there

just...dont worry about the poodle thingy..or hydrolock thingy...and dont get the bypass...the bypass doesnt even really work on our car...

anywho..get the AEM or Injen from the ecelica store as others said.

P.S.
Pay attention to their feedback and always read their feedback before bidding. I always bid on people who have 90-100 feedback, if negative and they have a reason to back it up then i would reconsider buying from them. Not all eBay seller are ripped off, even though there are jackass on eBay.

if it aint RMM, INJEN, or AEM, then don't bother. don't go for the cheap bargains. i'd rather pay for the gains rather than go cheap for something that might break down on you. i had a friend who bought one of those non-name Intakes off ebay. all it came with was a tube and a filter and one clamp. the clamp didn't even stay on for that long. shop around. here are two sites. enjoy.

www.modacar.com [modacar.com]

I just ordered the Injen CAI from modacar.com for 223 shipped!! WOO!

i got mine from speedandstyle.com -- but that was like 1.5 years ago.

I'd Go with Injen, and as said above .. it's worth the extra cash invested in genuine parts, you want to get the most gain out of your cash. I had the same problem on ebay with my tail lights ... took him over a month to ship them to me and they showed up scratched. (for a $150 bucks he could have atleast sent them in good condition) I was pissed! But there's a few bad apples here and there .. for the most part ebay has had awesome results for me. Good Luck!

you can find them pretty much anywhere including this site. got my 2nd gen for cheap from ebay.

Thanks 4 all the help. But now Im thinking about lowering my car. I was confused if I should either get the drop or the Intake. But I think im going for the drop. Dose anyone know some springs that drop the car like only 1.2" or less?

TRD, its like 1-1.2 or something, then eibach, its right after trd, then hotchkis for 1 3/8front and 1 7/8 rear then eibach sportlines for like 2 all the way around

yes, TRD. just got them installed - nice

I Can get you a cold air w/ filter brand new for $100.00

If anyone wants I can also get Coil-Overs for around $100.00 Brand New!!!

Save yourself the money and don't buy a bypass valve, unless you are a dumbass and like to submerge the front end of your car in lakes and rivers.

thats where I got my Injen Intake and exhaust but I had a lot of troubles with their customer service. I will never buy from them again. Buy your Intake at the Ecelicastore. You wont run into any problems with Isaac, hes great
