Quick Question (ebay intake)

this has probably been asked before. But i cant find it in the old threads.
Does this intake require cutting the fender??

Best thing to do is email the seller and ask. I would almost guarantee that that particular intake will require a hole.

I just purchased This one and the parts look very similiar.

It requires a hole as it puts the filter in behind the battery.

I've installed it just using the mid pipe for now and may go the full CAI route should I actually get the nerve to cut my fenderwell open.

Oh yah, AMAZING DIFFERENCE!! in the behaviour of the car and damn it's loud now!

I thought the one I picked up to be good value. The seller was also very good to deal with. Very prompt shipping(even to Canada) and quickly answered several questions I had before bidding.

I'll try and get a post up in the next day on the install w/pics.

I bought that exact same one also. Im not using the long pipe now, but if I want to change in the future, I will go ahead and do it. I love teh way it sounds, and I can feel a little difference. If any of you want to hear what it sounds like or see what it looks like go to: www.vqpower.com then click on downloads then search for "Devon". There are two files, enjoy!
