hey, i just wanted to get some opinions about my air cleaner, do you think it looks better with the air cleaner i got on it right now, or do you like the look of the stock shaker better? i don't got a pic of my car with the shaker, but here's a pic of my car with the current air cleaner and a pick of another t/a with the stock shaker.

yours prob gets the air in better but the shaker (black) one is more hi tech looking.

I guess its what your going for and what makes you happy... both are cool but I would lean towards black.

I think the shaker definitely looks better. The other way looks like someone just cut a hole in the hood. Kinda looks like the low budget street stock racers they run here on the dirt tracks. Does K&N make a filter so the shaker setup?

hahah i wanna get that same tattoo!
i dont think k&n makes a specific filter for it but i know im gettin one of them max flow things from them so it can breathe from the top of the filter as well as the sides...

lol i thought i was the only one crazy enough to want a big ass firebird tattoo, i talked to a tattoo artist about 2 weeks ago and he did a firebird on another guy, showed me the pic, he did a real good job so i've been thinking of getting one too.

anyway, i think i'm gonna try to take the k&n air filter out of the k&n air cleaner and fit it in the shaker so that i still got a k&n air filter and don't have to try and find a different one custom fit to the shaker, and ya, the more i started to look at the air cleaner, the less i liked it, i think it's time to go back to the shaker, thanks for the input guys :)

i still got my old one in my closet, but it's broken on the front, so the weather seal just kind of hangs there :p

what kind of condition is your extra shaker in? pretty much all the one's i've seen on ebay and stuff are in the same condition if not worse.
