that intake will do you fine, i got mine off ebay too. only thing i would do is change the filter that comes with one to a k&n, but the piping you get is fine.

First one you posted with the JDM description, NO. At least looking at the picture I'd say a definate no on that one.

Second post, looks right. Should be 2 separate pieces of piping, one from the intake manifold to the MAS (the shorter piece pictured) and the second piece goes from the other side of the MAS down behind your foglight (the longer piece). Looking at the picture posted, it looks good. the only thing would be location of the supports where it bolts so it doesn't wiggle around. On the AEM it uses a stock location where the old air box bolted and I don't know if this one does.

If you have any more ??? let me know, good luck!!!

yea. first one i'd say no. this is why. im telling you so you can help choose intake better. one the first one the MAS is relocated down behind the foglight. not only is it more suseptable to damage from road debris, but it has a lot better chance of getting wet and messing up the electronics inside. definitely not a good thing.

this thread is a good thread too. it shows you the difference between a no name ebay intake and a name brand intake http://club3g.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3...jen+ebay+intake ('http://club3g.com/forum/showthread.php?t=36218&highlight=injen+ebay+intake')

Ok, well I got the second one. If it does not bolt on in stock location, can I do anything to modify it so it will fit and not wobble around?

Ok, well... now I'm gettin kinda nervous. I bought the intake and I hope that it fits. I compred it to the pics of the injen on the club 3g forum and the piping looks to be the same and from the pic it seems like good quality. Hopefully it all works out. :?
