I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Well crap, I don't think I have the k8.... Is there anyway to get it to work without that?
If not, do you maybe have an extra set if stock intake hoses and air cleaner assembly? I really need it so I can pass smog.

Post in the "want to buy" section - someone may have these parts laying around.

You could also probably modify stock intake parts from a Mazda MX6, Ford Probe or Mazda 626 with a V6 engine. Any of those would be setup to use a similar VAF (air meter that is in the intake tube).
