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.

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.

It not for performance but for the pure joy of a great sounding engine!! -------------------- Group buy to replicate Narrow E series transaxle parts
