Welcome to the forum Bill. Be sure to check the SEARCH feature for answers to all your questions.

 

I've received very good and timely service from the power_garage ebay store:

Example:

Just look for a more recent listing.

It was fairly easy to install on my 2000 ES, but I must say Injen includes minimal diameter clamps on their kits. You may wish to stop by at Kragen or a hardware store and get slightly larger diameter clamps. The one that clamps the intake on the throttle body was particularly difficult to tighten.

The intake itself sounds great and added +7 to 8 HP. I haven't had the car dyno'd, but this is an estimate using the Passport GT2 accelerometer.

I've also done business with SR Motorsports. And be sure to check out Protege Garage:

FYI:
You can also buy the Injen kit at http://www.optionimports.com, but avoid them like the plague. They lied about the part being in-stock, shipped it too late for the track event, and refused to refund the full amount. After several discussions with them, they get a negative 10 for service.

 

Whoa!

 

did that intake come with nitrous??!?!!?
