Cold air intakes?

Post by DJ »

Hey, i'm just looking to do a few minor upgrades to my 1994 MX3 GS V6 5spd and was wondering what my options were in the way of intakes? Which ones are good and how much will they improve performance?

Thanks ahead of time!

My friend has a Injen cold air intake from his 2003 mazda protege5 (he took it off and put the original back on when he sold it ), any possible way to fit that onto my car?

I've been doing some searching on the net and which is the best out of the intakes like WeaponR's intake, HKS super mega flow, or PRM's jet stream? Which sounds the best and adds the most performance?

I use a cold air intake like the PRM but its called GREEN Twister. here in EU it gets very good remarks. it has been tested and approved by the German TUV and the manufacturer promises up to 10 percent more power and torque. I know Peugeot use it in Danish touring car championships and in WRC so the quality is very high. check greenfilterusa

here's some pics
