Question Cold-Air Induction Systems

Recently I have been looking for a Cold air intake kit for my 88 3.8L V6 Thunderbird. I have had almost no luck finding one on the web. Does anyone know where I can find one?

PS Someone that I know (who drives the same car) claimed that they used a BBK intake. When I went to their web site all I found were intakes for Mustangs. Are they interchangable for the 88 model?

Thanks for all of your help in advance.

Thanks for those links. I found some good stuff I can use but there were still no Intake Kits / Cold Air ram kits that I am looking for. Thanks though

Do you know what it feels like to do an amazing burnout listening to that wonderful exhaust note, Oh you drive a honda sorry dude, but theres hope they still make nitrous oxide!

Racing a Honda is like being in the special olympics even if you win your still retarded!

nodnod, pretty much all you're buying is a dryer exhaust hose, i've seen alot of people do this, mainly people that are cramped for space under the hood
