depends on the placement of the intake manifold is realitive to the engine bay and whole in the fender.
on a 5sfe in a celica the bends and lengths are just right. I would think that if the placement of the intake manifold are to farther foward or behind then the 5sfe then i might have some troubles when dealing with the angle of the pipes and length. Id say try it and at most lose 20 or so bucks on the pipes. At least ull have fun cutting stuff up and junk. o also i dont know if the intake side of the manifold is the same size and thus you may need a smaller reducer. |

I bought a CAI for my car ST off ebay for like 30$, works great. I left out the bybass valve cause it took away the sound of the intake.

I found a ton of bypass valves all diff sizes too not for $40-50 but $20 here they are there are lots of diff styles too. Bypass Valves
also what is the hose coming out of the valve cover into the throttle body do and why do some people have it going into their intake piping???? This post has been edited by chicklover345: Aug 14, 2005 - 1:10 PM -------------------- My car = 0-60 in ~9sec

WARNING Must use 2.5 inch pipe if not moding the hole below the fuse box. If you use 2.75" pipe the sides of the hole will rub a cut into the pipe.
Pix of mine soon to come. If you use 2.75" cut the hole larger. |

not completely easy.. but it wasn't anything difficult... just time consuming...
1. get the inside fender cover off.. 2. getting fuse box out.. 3. widening hole under fuse box. 4. cutting 2 small parts off pipes with hacksaw.. took me about 4 hours total -------------------- ~Daniel~ No Longer Celica Owner.. moved on to a 03 WRX-EJ207

only problem is the filter is pushing into the fender plastic so the tire rubs slightly when i make hard right turns... not sure if i'm just gonna leave it or add a little elbow to point the filter towards the front...
not sure... but i love how it sounds!! -------------------- ~Daniel~ No Longer Celica Owner.. moved on to a 03 WRX-EJ207

Is that a 96 engine in your car Boss-Celica? I have a 94, and I've never noticed the differences before. I thought the set up was almost the same with all the 5sfe motors. My egr valve is different, and that vent hose coming out of the valve cover.

[right][snapback]344154[/snapback][/right] I see what you are talking about. I think they did do some minor adjustments from the 94 to the 96. -------------------- |
