link doesn't work. (i think ebay has done something that prevents their site from being linked, probably due to bandwith), but even if its not better its just 20 dollars, nothing to cry over. Plus you can always re-sell it.

ok i found out how to view things when ebay is acting gay. Just go to www.ebay.com and copy the number after "item=" in this cas "1840239234" then type that number in the search field and hit enter. It will take u directly to the item.

Here's a link, might work. Dunno. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebays/ws/ebayISA...239234&r=0&t=0

Yea, thats pretty much all of us have for an intake Id say. The only thing that Id be a little concerned about is the brand of filter, but Im sure its OK. I mean, I paid $25 just for the adapter alone, so Id say you got a good deal

haha it's not cold air. just normal filter. but ya the adapters alone sell for that much. so as long as the filter or adapter don't fall apart it's a good deal

That's not a cold air intake, that's a generic pod filter with a crappy adaptor. A cold air intake is something that allows your filter to actually take in cold air!

The AFM's intake is rectangular, not round. You'll see when you bolt it up.

Which is why the cast aluminium HKS adaptor is a smooth transition from round to rectangular.

Hey guys about that intake adapter plate, my car came with the K&N intake kit (it has a filter with this big thing that the filter is attached to) and while cleaning the fiter the other night I noticed that the hole that the air gets sucked into is only a small rectangle. Is that better or worse than the adapter plate and filter??
