My Beams came with the standard intake which I'm planning on using to start with, but is there any/much advantage going aftermarket with a decent CAI in place? I've read elsewhere that the standard Beams intake is the best...
It was Bonzai's post below that got me thinking. Mine is an auto and still a blast to drive (I usually just auto-stick it since they made the tranny able to do so anyway). But I'm more thinking....GREAT, another person to compete for parts with... *edit* oh and for an intake, I use one from a late 90's 4runner and it works great, but just had to get a proper sized silicone adapter. for the intake check out my thread. All you need to do is buy this : http://www.amazon.com/Short-Induction-Inta.../dp/B002W5XHI8/ cut it and buy a 71mm piping that has a 80-90 degree bend like mine and it works great. -------------------- |

I just noticed something, most of those have the oil breather plugged in (sealed & metered system), which is good, but if you don't then you'll need to disconnect the pcv from the manifold or it will take in unmetered air from time to time.
Solution is to run both into a catch can with a filter on top. -------------------- Mike W
