Just asking because there is a "Universal" intake at the Advanced Autoparts and was wondering how well that might work. Looks like a piece of flexible black tubing that connects to some aluminum piping and a filter. I figure if there werent enough bends, i could buy the individual pieces they sell. I figured w/ that price it'd be the same as if I bought an Ebay intake plus id have it now. any ideas?

anythign will work
My car may run 18s, but I can do your taxes in 10 seconds flat.
JBO lube - they would never have enough in stock and we'd never see RodimusPrime again
anything that increases air intake will help, although the more pieces an intake has to connect, the ridges it has and bends it has, the less power you will notice...then again dont expect to buy an intake and gain 15-20 hp whether its autozone or aem.

as long as there are few bends and smooth on the inside the biggest diffrence will be the filter.
I heard to make sure it connects to the throttle body not the silencer box ... most ebay/cheap intakes I seen connect to the silencer box
your intake should delete all of the stock boxes and piping. what you should be left with is a cone filter on the end of a tube that goes straight to the throttle body, of course with a bung for your IAT.
just get one off ebay it'll be cheaper than Autozone

My autozone intake was $60 i think, i pieced it together and glued it together and painted it. it has 2 bends in it and its 3" piping. its a bit large maybe, but i think it looks mean. This was before I could use ebay.
I got an ebay short ram intake ....(the one in my sig) how much power do you think it added I was thinkin maybe 1 horse and like 2 or 3 pounds of weight reduction lol

I spent maybe $20 at the autoparts store for my intake. I ended up having to cut it down also because it was to long to work with the HO manifold. Of course that is $20 without the filter.
