Ebay Cold Air Intakes Options

[rkelly_83543]

Hey guys,
So I have been looking for some time for a cold air intake (not a short ram) for my '94 GT.
I keep coming across an intake made by chromeintakes on ebay.
Is this a good buy or just more crap trying to make a buck off of me?
Thanks!

Here's a link to one of them:

The filter ends up underneath the battery tray. It will fit - trust me - but it does require a little work - not bad though as I think I installed it in less than an hour. You have to remove the cruise control box - if equipped. The intake that I am referring to comes in 3 pieces. It's best, at least from my experience, to first install the piece that hooks to the throttle body, then assemble the piece with the filter. This is where it kinda gets tricky - because of the tight space underneath the battery you have to hold the piece with the filter in the general area of where it will be (underneath the battery) and connect it to the middle pipe. Once you have that piece assembled you can connect it to the pipe connected to the throttle body. You may have to do some manipulation of the pipes to get everything to align perfectly but it's not bad. As I stated I think I had mine installed in an hours time. I suggest that if you do have cruise control to place a small piece of foam pad, or any small piece of cushion material between the intake tube and the cruise control box. I did not do this initially and the result was that the intake tube vibrated against the cruise control box and became scratched up and eventually dug in to the intake tube. Of course it took a couple of months for this to happen but it's better to take preventive measures when you do the install. I can send you some pics if you like detailing what it looks like once installed - that may help you understand how it's done. Thanks.
