    Try Cosmo Racing. They're fairly cheap.

    it might but probably not. i rather get a dedicated intake for the same year as your car. at least youll be sure the MAF and all the holes will line up properly without tugging any wires too hard. plus itll probably fit better too. you can get one of those really cheap intakes and get a good filter.

    i still think removing the lower part of the stock intake is about the same...i mean...its still going through the filter so its safe, its short, the restrictive par tis gone, plus its free. always wondered wat it would be like too, i still have my upper air box.. threw out the old one cuz its somehow smashed up

    i removed the airbox cover on my rental focus. sounded great.
    my friend does the same on all his cars.

    on a car like the mazda3, a CAI isnt giving any noticeable performance gains, so what's the point in spending money on one?

    Buy a used one, like electric's up there. That simota intake is top notch quality and the CF heatshield works well and looks fantastic!
    Canada gave us rust and DRL. Thanks for nothing Canada!

    Cosmo Racing SRI.
    Cheap, no CEL's, looks awesome.

    Also, get an AEM DryFlo filter. None of this oiling / over oiling / under oiling nonsense.
