as for attaching you just have to find some rubber boots and a couple hose clamps no welding required

other option just attach a cone filter to the stock maf sensor

yeah ive seen all that im just wondering if anyone has bought a weapon-r intake, i want to know if it had all the hose connections and if it has a spot for the MAF sensor (the compact DOHC one)

Its a bit of a pricey intake system that does the samething u can buy at a autozone and yes can make it fit with the sohc or dohc mx-3. maf vaf don't matter u can fit that weapon r on both as far as vac. line as long as u have 1 it will work its a vac, line from ur trottle body.

i just want a nice aluminum intake, and i really like the weapon-r filters.
