as far as an intake on a non turbo car? i beg to differ...a short ram for 90 bucks will do the same as the 200 dollar Injen one...and i think it looks good
no it will not all those things matter more on an NA car than n a turbo car. Intakes on a turbo car are just about worthless untill you have big HP. Not to mention you absolutly could have paid $90 for an Injen. I got my Injen cold air for my 3g for $90 just needed a filter and it looked a hell of a lot better, but when you got a car that is a econo car I guess it doesnt really matter to much. I just went the cheap intake route before on my 1st 3G and it was a living nghtmare and caused my intake manifold to crack at the throttle body flange and it cracked 4 different manifolds untill I relized what was causeing it

It absolutly did though. 4 times. if its not well made. and hangs weights down on the trottlebody it can crack it and the thin manifolds in the 3g rs gs crack easily

I think what he was trying to say is that the way an intake on a N/A matters more becuase it goes intake, throttle body, manifold, engine. Where on a turbo car it goes Intake,turbo,intercooler,throttle body, manifold, engine. So as you could imagine what the intake on a turbo is made out of doesn't really make a difference at the end.

oh and I was in no way trying to down talk you man. I like your car and I am glad for you. I had a GS eclipse at your age so I also had a car I wanted to be faster but was nothing more than 100WHP pile of metal for me as it fell apart a million times lol.
