#20764, "What a difference!"




          

I just got my eclipse in January and finally did my first mod to it today. I bought a K&N Universal Cone filter and attached it to my stock intake tubing. My car sounds mean now...mwahaha. I can tell it has more power down low and in the high rpms. Only took about 15 min to install.

98 RS M/T - CAI w/K&N Filter - AFX udp - 2.5" Catback Exhuast - Symborski Shift Kit - Energy Suspension Inserts -
17" wheels & tires - Rear Disc Conversion - and now 1 broken motor mount!!!!

I just used some zip ties to hold the tube in place. The filter part didn't seem to move around too much.

I just bought my car 2 weeks ago and I already have severe mod disease. I can't do my homework cause I'm on the phone, on the net, or flippin through magazines looking for mods. I've already got a list a mile long, just need to find a way to get some dough. Hopefully this summer the car will be paid off and then I can start buying some shiznit.
