I'm not sure if it will line up directly cause I'm not sure what the stock angles/measurements are
but the bend definitely looks like its made for a honda eg/ef/dc/ek chassis with a d or b-series motor
i can get measurements for you and you can compare them to your stock intake if you want so you can figure out if you think it will fit/work...</TD></TR></TABLE>

Thatd be great.

Say you're Greek and you can't go to school for religious beliefs. Tomorrow is the holiday of some Saint who's the protector of all students / schools and Thursday is the funeral of the Arch Bishop.

I don't know about you guys but BEER tonight!

Yeah, I much prefer my Sol to either of the G20s I've owned ('93.5 manual, '99 auto).

My Sol is much faster, handles better, and feels so much more connected to the road. Plus it's fun cruising around with the top off, and the seats and seating position are way comfier. It's also much lower, louder, and harsher, and much less practical.

The G20 just feels soft and bulky compared to the Sol, but it's nice having four doors, leather, heated seats, A/C, etc.

Basically, the Del Sol feels like a go-kart, and the G20 feels like an entry-level luxury sedan.

To the guy asking the original question... Coomers car has a H2B swap i.e. H22A4 engine with a B16A2 transmission. So don't be dissapointed if you got a regular old "S" model and it's a bit sluggish.

The car is I find a wee bit shaky with the top off - or maybe it's just my senses playing tricks on me when open to the elements at high speed.

I've owned my Sol for 3+ years and whilst I was hesitant about the handling at first, I've found it's very very capable. Keep in mind my set up is a worn out shady suspension but I got 215/40/16 tires which gives me alot of grip. I out handle alot of European hot hatches (Renault, Peugeot) on high speed corners.

Haha f you man, you know it sucks here.

This is how it goes for us this winter.

3-5 inches of snow in a week or less, followed by subzero temps for another week. A week later it gets like 45 degrees and all the snow melts. Repeat that cycle 4 times and you have our winter.

Its super sucky.

my basemap was something like $180 from phaerable.net
then since i alredy had a crome chipped ecu, my tune from CFT was only $350 but they usually average anywhere from $300-$500
