Go same diameter and location as your stock one just fill in the rib section so the air has less resistance. It has already been engineered to work the best for your motor, the ribs are usually just there to add appeal to the engine noise, otherwise dont get to crazy unless you plan on dyno time otherwise you might actually end up hindering performance. Just remember velocity is as important as volume

I think the intake will be fine the way it is. I would just go cheapest cold air and whatever. Headers will be good. You should definately look into the right diameter of exhaust piping. 2.5" might be to much, I don;t know. On K8 motors we go 2.25" cause its best.

Suspension mods are always my favorite. Good brakes are calipers that work properly if you know what i mean.

Ok, so my transmission is messing up, I think its a bolt that my dad might have dropped inside. Now I been looking around and found someone that is willing to sell EGT tranmission and flywheel and clutch(used) for a good price. My question is do I need axles I bought new axles for mx3 when I fixed tranmission? Am I going to need EGT axles or will my MX3 hold up??
