Ebay is where you get the best deals, with known brand name CAI.

Modern Performance is the best place in my opinion to get parts for the neon. Here is a link for the 2nd gen stuff...

eBay is the worst place to get parts for the neon. Most will have fitment problems. I trust places that have been in business for the neon for years. On eBay you get people selling a part for a 94 neon that just also happens to fit a 2002?!?! Most eBay sellers have no clue about the part they are selling, just trying to make a buck!

buy a used one off somebody and just cut it up and use couplers to make it. thats what I did for my old car and as long as you are careful it works really well for like 1/3 the cost.
IMO its not worth paying like 250 for like 5hp.

Re: Cold Air Intake...04 Neon Sxt

Get one of ebay for $50, imo AEM is a rip off, why pay $200 when you can pay $50 and get basically the same results
