Buying a Toro would be a good upgrade. Those things are powerful and last forever. The one we have in the garage is over 20 years old and still starts on the first pull.

What about custom ram air? A guy own a 95 max is trying to sell me his custom ram air. He said it should fit on my 94 se because it's custom. I'm going to meet him tomorrow. He wants $53 for it, do you think this is reasonable for a used ram air. It includes a filter, piping going to the radiator i think. Suggestions? How does it compare to PR Cai?

later.

just make sure it fits before you buy. 95's and 94's are different generations. saying that it will fit yours because its custom is like saying that Czar's turbo would fit a 4th gen because its custom.

Its not going to compare to WSP or PR, spend the $130 or so for a warpspeed CAI and you wont regret it.........
