intakes

I am looking for an intake on-line i am confused on what to get my first instinct is to go with the k&n intake that has the pvc body to it because someone said that i will not take on heat like metal and chrome ones will. but i was jsut looking on ebay and i found 94-97 S-10 S10 Jimmy Xtreme 2.2L I4 Cold Air Intake System With Brand Name Real K&N Air Filter it says that it has a heat resistance tube with looks to be polished aluminum. i was just wondering what is crap and what is not. this is it if u wanna see for urself. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7941953886&category=38634#ebayphotohosting

keep looking, im getting one for my 98 4.3l for 30 bucks plus ship, when i get it (who knows with this time of year) and if you havnt gotten a good reply by then ill let you know what i think of it

anybody else have a good luck with the cheapo intakes or should i just stick w/ getting the k&n 57 series fipk. it is gunna b around 270 i think. should i do it?

i wouldnt, like blazerlt said in one post, its the same thing, without the $200 sticker that k&n puts on their product

but with the aluminum intake it does not "soak up" heat from the engine? if not the hell yeah i'm buying a freken 30 dollar one with a k&n filter on it!

i dont think it would, aluminum trades off heat real easy, so the cold in shouldnt be effected by the hot out, and if so, just buy the insulating tape that you can pick up from autozone
