I was on another forum asking about something and they referred me here to ask you more about it because they say you are very knowledgeable about the subject
so i have a 1999 2.4L Olds Alero and i am looking for a cold air intake
i have found a couple that are very pricy and i was wondering if the cavalier z24 intakes would fit in my car because they have the same engine i wouldnt think it was a problem...im just wondering about the spacing in the engine bay and would it be fine in my car
i have a friend with a 2001 grand am, he bought an ebay 2.4 (aem knock-off) intake and it fit flawlessly.
thats the same engine but where the stock intake is on my car is below that black cap with the orange print on it, so i just bought a knockoff for like $20 bucks as an experiment, if it doesnt fit, its just money, im not going to die
email , or search the alero forums
for a true cai expect to pay
huh? i garentee you it will work just fine
hey john i did find a true CAI, $360, but since im not really into modding this carand just want and intake because its cool, im getting a knockoff
this is the one i just bought
heres my engine bay, i think it fits lol
DO NOT USE THAT INTAKE!!!!!!!!! IT WILL MESS UP YOUR MOTOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!
jk
aw man dude, you just scared the @!#$ out of me
i wouldnt mind paying for something and finding out myself it wont work
but if you just told me id mess my engine up right now, i would have gone back on ebay and canceled my order, taken my negative feedback and told that guy to drown himself
but i got a good laugh after like 20 seconds, because i didnt see the jk
at first haha
Haha, dont sweat it man an intake is no problem. All an intake is, is just a pipe with a filter. It will work with your car no problem, and even if for some odd reason it wouldnt you make it fit easily.
alrite well the shipping suck, they said 2 weeks, so ill be around and then post again and probably be mad because i have no clue how to do it
because the stock air box is ugly and i dont want to pay $200 for a real intake lol
whatever happened to the TO boys intake? didnt that dyno like an 11whp gain or something?
That intake will fit just fine on an Alero. It's exactly the same type of thing I used to have, and it fit mine just fine.
