New here got a few questions
 

Wondering if some of you guys can help me out with some questions i got i been reading a lot of the post here and i read that most of you think the best (cheap :boink: ) things to for performance first is to get a ebay CAI and exhaust and i was wondering which exhaust do you think are good?
and would this CAI work ? -Link-

almost forgot :dunno: i got a
2002 Protege ES 2.0L




thanks

id go for the OBX ss catback, 2.5". it is what i have on my lx2.0, its a lil over kill but if your planning on S/C or turbo then its worth it. im just N/A right now and i love it to death. ive also heard great things about magnaflow systems. i have a link to someone selling theirs.

hope this helps

BTW, welcome :wave:

Pretty much all CAI are the same. Trust me, I've had an AEM and an Injen. Other than the looks, you will get the same performance out of them all. Save yourself the money and just get a generic e-Bay one. There's also no difference other than sound between a SRI and a CAI intake. The SRI is a little louder but that's about it.

BTW, welcome.

in all honesty a catback exhaust will not give much power if any on an otherwise stock car. I would look to do these simple mods first for overall driveability (not perormance)

1. Ebay CAI - $48-60

2. AWR Front motor mount - $65

3. OBX 4-1 Header - $210-230

4. Kartboy exhaust hangers and shift bushings - $50

THEN your choice of catbacks....the most powerfull catback would be the Corksport Powerseries....the Obx header with a CS exhaust would be a full race exhaust
