intake question
Friday, April 06, 2007 8:34 PM
alright im looking into an intake for the cav... its an 00 and im looking on ebay because through numerous sources, people have said that the ebay intakes perform just about as well as the expensive weapon R and Injen intakes...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/98-99-00-2001-02-Cavalier-Sunfire-2-2-2-2L-Air-Intake_W0QQitemZ230111625935QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item230111625935

this intake says it has everything needed, but dont i need a space for my sensor? i know im just blowing hot air here, because i have no clue whats involved with the electrical system for the intake... mainly the o2 sensor or maf sensor? i know the intake fits, but im worried about the sensor location and such.

i know this auction has ended, there are more...

Those are just the" universal" ones found at Autozone, pepboys. Just a straight piece with a 45 degree bend they should come with a rubber gromet for your IAT sensor and a coupler. Just keep that 2200 box if you want to go that route. We sell Stainless steel intakes (WAI) and (CAI)'s for all j-body app's. 95-05 that are direct replacements. Click my sig or shoot me an E-mail if you want any further details.

You O2 sensor is in the exhaust, not the intake. So no worries there.

I believe the only thing you need to worry about is the AIT (air intake temp) sensor. If it doesn't come with a spot, drill a hole and add a rubber grommet and put it in the hole. $0.56 for the part at any hardware or parts store.
