The intake hose will fit, but the boxes won't bolt into the opposite chassis. You'll have to ghetto-rig it to make it sit right.

I could be wrong, but if both motors are a 1.6l, then they should have the same diameter intake piping, inner and outer diameter. So what would be the point in swapping them? If I am wrong, someone please fill me in, I hate to be left in the dark. IMO it just sounds stupid to swap something almost identical with no promise of power in return.

either 1 he has an ek w/o an air box and he's got a junk eg sittin around w/ one and he's too cheap to put one in, or 2 he's heard from some jackass that one flows better than the other so he wants to try it.

I have a Short ram intake right now... I need the airbox to pass CA smog. and I cant find an airbox from a 99. It's harder than I thought it would be... im willing to trade someone + give them cash too.
