Moroso....came with the car. I have no complaints, but I am probably going to fashion a ram air scoop of sorts for the bottom panel to force some cold air to the filter.

Back in 93, when there was no such thing as a CAI for these cars, I relocated my filter box to the bottom, with the opening (TB side) facing front through a hole in that plastic panel, took some dryer hose from Home Depot and a PVC connector and managed to pick up .15 and around 1 mph. Not bad for a few bucks and some creative thinking, lol.

K&N here. seemed like it felt a little better than the stock SS intake. Plus, Made more room in there with that SS one out.

That looks like one of those ebay specials or one somebody made from Home Depot parts.

I think I want to do the LS1 lid on my car. I only need the lower air box/radiator support. Only problem is it prob hits the factory hood?
