BTW, thats also the same intake that ractive sells for the 1.5

 

I have a BOMZ RACING short ram intake with a K&N filter for 95-98 protege's

 

im new to this, whats up with the sensor did you guys get a new one or using the stock one or what? let me know

 

and will the 1.8L intakes fit the 1.5's

It will fit, but its design is so cheap! 90 degree bend? Oh, air flow is really going to like that. But, you get what you pay for.

 

mines simota too..with k&n cone filter

 

that looks nice were did you get that

 

Ok guys.
All 'generic' intakes (ractive, OBX, etc) are made in Taiwain and stamped with a logo. The Simota is the EXACT same one you get when you buy ractive.

 

dont buy an intake from ractive or simota

they dont put much thought into these, they really jus put a 3 inch pipe with a cone filter sitting in your engine bay right behind the rad fan

youre jus going to loose torque and suck in hot air

these are horrible and you are probably better off with the factory one

If you want an intake for our cars, get one custome done.

Many people on the board do them, ive made a few and was extremely sucessful, feel free to email me if you have any questions.

i believe turbonium959 also made his own and is very happy
bruce made his own i believe
and essential speed also makes custom ones, even tho 300 is kinda pricey

 

actually, if you click on my car domain page you could see the one i made, and see how i utilized the factory piping up to the maf sensor...

 

Hey, I like that intake. Looks nice, and shiny. Thats what I will do to mine, when I decide to clean up my engine bay.

 

thanks man

i actually just bought used short ram intakes off other people that realized they made a bad choice.. lol and cut and drilled and **** and eventually came out with a kick *** intake

 

Howeverm this is NOT a short-ram intake. Its is a FULL cold air intake that draws air in from the fender. Its uses a GENUINE KN invert filter and not ractive, OBX, etc...
Also, the price is $300 CDN, not US (just an fyi for 'mericans)...
Try and find a QUALITY CAI for ANY car for that price (quality means Injen, AEM, etc...not Ractive)

 

an essential speed intake isnt comparable to an AEM
an AEM goes through many many hours of R&D and dyno tuning
