May be possiable but is it a wise move.
Different engines react different to different system.
Sometimes good and sometimes not so good.
But it already has a factory OEM on the road threw grille or fender forced cold air intake system on it.
Why are or what are you wanting in a aftermarket air intake system?
Mileage , performance or just decoration or a cold air intake status symbol?

Dont know about brand , some guys use a Honda one from autozone.I have one on my older 1990 sse made of ABS and I find a increase in HP , my 2000 ssei I have FWI both have K&N FILTER.A Cai (cold air intake) needs to have a heat shield other wise u will be sucking in warm air from engine bay.There is a air hole behind driver headlight that is where u want your filter, make sure it is a good filter like K&N.U want a nice smooth laminer flow thru pipe.U also need ur Iat sensor installed into it.

On my 97 3800 non- super charged...the check engine light went out and hasnt been back...mileage better, pick-up better, looks cool, and not to expensive...look on e-bay motors under SSE..many of them on there....i fabbed my own cool aluminum heat shield....works great , looks great.
