M2 a good intake?
I'm working on buying a used intake for my '93 FD and I've searched all I can stand on the subject, but can find no definative answers... As far as I can tell, it looks to be a good system, but am I better off getting a new Greddy Airinx system? What are the pro's/con's to each from those who have tried similar sytems? My car is bone stock except for a DP and Fluidyne radiator and I'm about to pull the trigger on a Apexi Power FC/ commander.
Thanks for your imput!

The best cold air intake for the FD is the one you already have. It just needs to be modified so that it supplies an additional source of cool air. I sell a kit fo $70 (cheap) if you are interested. Don't waste several hundred dollars on something that isn't as good as what you have now

I have an M2 intake but I need the room

i cut the bottom of my stock one, rivoted in a shield to keep the radiator air out. And it worked very nice. now i have a v mount and a direct cold air. So my old air box is in storage bin. PM if you want to buy it.

In addition to Adam's idea would be the Racing Beat intake peice. Unfortunately it's made of paper thin plastic instead of fiberglass or carbon fiber. For $100 it should have been a decent thickness and not crumble like a leaf after it dries up with heat and age. Works well when new though. I ended up throwing mine in the trash.
