I want a bit more power but dont want an engine swap, but I will eventually do the engine swap. What is an Intake system you have used and found good? BTW how much would an older d-series vtech cost? Stats of the engine, anything helps.

 

I got my 1.6D vtech head for $75. As far as the intake goes, depending on how big your throttle body is on your intake manifold, just get an intake with the piping the size of it and run it out. Brand normally doesnt make a difference with a cold air intake, its not like its a special type of tubing. Even though aluminum does conduct heat, you want something that wont conduct as much heat so the air stays cold.

 

I dont know car terms, what is a head, and is it the the entire engine, I must sound retarded. h:

 

ebay intake with K&N air filter $75

 

the head is the top part of the motor that contains the valvetrain. and yes ebay is the way to go if you want an intake. any one should do jus type in year and model of car.

 

Is all I do to install, take out the rubber pipe and black box with air filter out and replace with pipe? There is a little nozzle it looks like near the filter, and I was wondering what that was?

 

lil nozzle? is it a small tube goin to the valve cover? if so the intae willcome with what you need to replace that.

 

No, it is on the intake, and it is a little straw lookin thing by the air filter

like there, about an inch to the left of the filter.

 

intake is fine just throw a K&N Filter on it

 

iceman good....
plastic tube doesn't conduct heat. i got a iceman cold air off of ebay used, and paid $73 for it. it's a long shot to find another one that cheap, but look out for them.
