if you can measure and cut pipe i suggest you buy an intake for 92-95 honda accord off ebay. it has all of the right bends in it to fit, if cut properly. i got mine for like $30 shipped.

there are some all over ebay or you can go to any auto parts stor and spectre sells individaul pieces so you can put one together yourself.

Yeah that will work!!
It's not too hard to install, maybe a bit overwelming for a noob. It was for me, but now I switch between WAI and CAI at the track, takes like 15 mintues ;)

you're going to absolutely LOVE the sound it makes under heavy acceleration.
you'll also notice you fill up more often because you cant keep your foot off the gas pedal :lol:

No matter what the insturctions say, you DO NOT have to take off the wheel to install it :cool:

Nah turn the wheel all the way to the left, you can access all bolts on the splash guard, I think there is 10, I only have 3 :p
