Pretty easy hehehe I got some 3" aluminum tube left over if any one wants to try it.

Cold Air
Here you go.
K&N RC-5000
You'll probably notice I had to remove the all of the stock Airbox.
The bottom will most likly fit back in if I trim it alittle. Instead I"ll fab
another one out of aluminum.

Before I forget, anyone have recommendations for tires if I'm doing 8 month driving in MN? I hear the stock tires lose traction at lower temperatures, which are pretty common in MN. I don't think I need snow tires per se, I've got a beater I can drive in the winter. However, some people who can speak from experience would be great.

just know...under 45degrees and our stock tires easily break free...after warming up, not so much so...but lets just say as soon as the temp goes into freezing or lets say any ice/snow/etc. you are driving 4 blocks of ice...it is totally undriveable

I hope the price comes down on the interceptor unit from Mazsport...290hp with stock components is one thing but 250 torque! my goodness...especially since it is from a reputable Rotary Tuner :D
hhehehe.
