WHAT?

I may have a different tranny other then stock on I'm not sure. I'm replacing the little seal for the linkage this week end so I'll look for any markings or numbers on the tranny, because from what I see here, it looks like my car is geared different. I hit 40 in 2nd pretty easy. And as for highways...

Or cut off the flanges and weld them together.

I know the local Advance Auto here sells prefab aluminum pipes...maybe check there or Napa. Or just call a shop and buy from them. And yes couplers was the word I was looking for.

Wait and do them both at the same time.

If you can weld and all then go for it. Just make sure to measure everything and get all the right connector things (sorry can't think of what they're called).

When I accelerate quickly...say I'll give it enough gas to get it to 4K RPMs...well, it'll stay at 4K RPMs while the car SLOWLY accelerates to what the speed it would normally be at 4K. When it reaches what it should be, it'll accelerate like normal. Does this sound like "a clutch slipping&quo...

Yeah thats about 2-3k rpm in fifth going about 70-80. I may have different ratios because the previous owner did work to the tranny but I don't know what.

Well, cold weather will affect the performance to a degree. Nothing major I don't think though.

When you're on the highway, do you short shift or run through the gear? I don't ever have any problems with high rpms on the highway. Usually around 2000 in 5th.

Measure the diameter of the intake tube where you want the cone at and then call the parts store and ask for a cone filter with diameter "whatever". Shouldn't that work? I don't know the number I got stock intake.

Let alone needing the FAQ to replace it

I used the great write up by Tunes on cleaning the tb and it took care of my idle problems. I recommend using it. Should be in the FAQs.

Check the search feature and prepare to be flamed ...

Oh, and a little bit of info just FYI, there is no v4. its an inline 4

Search CAI, cold air intake, bpt, turbo, check the faq.
