    I have no clue what you just meant.

    best you can do for the intake of the V6 is to delete the resonator, run an open filter if you wish, isolate it all from the heat, and then duct cold fresh air to it.

    I have to agree with you, I also can't seem to understand what 93v6 is trying to say. Anyway, I just find your post such an interesting tip and I think my cousin could follow that because he is planning to hook up a ram air intake this weekend. Thanks for sharing it.

    If you guys have ever seen a 3.slow intake you'd understand. Everything about that abortion of a pile of scrap metal engine is overcomplicated and extremely over engineered to the point of it being an unruly whore to work on.


    I'll snap a pic of one tomorro... err today. :lol:

    ill see your 22re swap, and raise you a 5vze suggestion :D

    ...... not to mention its also a closer "bolt in" swap for the 3.0 engine bays and trannies.

    as for a real suggestion to his question......... e-bay my friend. you will find a few inexpensive 3vz intake kits you can install. everything should be straightforward on installation. not much has to change except for replacing the stock section of tubing from the throttle body out. everything else should plug back in where its supposed to.
