K&N intake - December 13, 2000 01:36 am UTC
I was at the Automotive warehouse and saw the new K&N 1G N/T air intake system (pipe and filter and air can eliminator) for $210 ,
Is that a good price or is there another company that makes an air intake for the N/T that is cheaper ?
$210 is a little steep.
I know WeaponR makes an Intake system for the 1G NT. It's made out of Carbon Fiber. I don't know how much this one cost but probably $150 to $200...
I'm pretty sure any good Muffler Shop could make an Intake Tube. Or you could ask any Metal Fabrication Shop to make one. That would be a little cheaper and it would probably be the same.

Steve, just wondering if K&N actually makes one of these systems for the 1G NT. I contacted them when those things first came out and they said they didn't have one for our cars. Just curious to know if they have one now? Maybe you should ask them if they are willing to do a group purchase for this item. I know I would get one for sure.
Ghislain, the last time I checked the price for the weapon R intake, it was $300CND +taxes. They might of dropped their prices since then! Or you can always get from the states.

What would be wrong with the homemade ones that Tyler (Ghislain too I think) made? Or are you going for the professional appearance?

When I was looking for a battry for my laser the guy at the Auto motive warehouse tells me he has the new K&N intake system for the N/T and turbo modles.HE had 3 in stock.part #575500 You can get them from Crappy tire as well from the KEYSTONE catalog .of coarce they will cost more from crappy.(thats were I just got the part # from I have the 2000 keystone book)
I had two of the home made ones start to leak Im no sure if its because I'm making them to short and the engine flex is pulling them apart who knows?

I think a "Home Made" Air Intake System could look as professional as a bought one. Good workmanship can look pretty cool. It is also nice to have something of it's own.
Buddy wold say; Hey, were did you get this???
Your line would be; Made it myself!!!
