Intake trouble
I bought a Bomz Racing Cold Air Intake off of eBay for my 98 Cavalier 2.2L but when my friends and I went to go put it on we couldn't figure out how it went on. It didn't come with any instructions but we thought we could do it without but we just couldn't figure out how it went on. I have looked on line to see Cavaliers with intakes and those pipes are all pretty much straight but the one i got has a big curve in it so it makes it difficult as to where and how it is supposed to go. I was just wondering if anyone knows how to put one on. The picture on eBay looks nothing like the one i got so that doesn't help. The only way you could see what it looks like is if you want me to e-mail you the pictures.

Ok here are a few steps to a good install on a ebay intake.
1: Make sure all clamps mounts and any other hardware are present. 2: Pre-assemble all piping hardware and soft mounts to make the intake one solid unit. 3: Throw it in the trash. An ebay intake should get your trash can a good 5hp at the rims and 8fp of torque at the bottom.

Re: Intake trouble
Down in the fender. Where the old Bong resonator use to sit next to the windsheild washer fluid container. Thats what a CAI looks like and runs to. The intake also connects directly to the TB. :WINK:
