95-97 k&n CAI

[mtcrss2006]

the modification encyclopedia said the k&n will fit 95-97 cars if u buy the
1LE elbow... so i bought my friend both of those (intake and elbow) cuz he was going to pay me for it and to put it on... but i got everything and the elbow is so long that the tube goes past where the K&n tube goes. also, the IAT sensor is on the outside of the of the bend in the elbow. so A) its not fitting, and doesnt look like it will even with some "engineering" and B) even if it did fit, the wire to the plug for the IAT sensor doesnt reach far enough to plug into it.

any suggestions? even tho i've already made myself look stupid...

Re: 95-97 k&n CAI

why not just buy the whole K&N kit, it should have come with the elbow if you did get the full kit new.

extend the wires to reach the hole

any pics of the items you are describing?

I bought a 4" to 3" reducing 90* elbow from intakehoses.com along with a 3" coupler. Fits in there, a tad bit snug, but it all fits in there. I've got the Moroso LT1 CAI, and I believe it and the K&N are basically the same. You could always try making your own smooth bellow with a 4" reducer followed by some 3" piping. That way you could cut it as short as needed.

Re: 95-97 k&n CAI

got the k&n cai (for the lt1), not the slp, but i ordered the slp intake elbow to make the k&n fit... i could extend the wires but the kid i'm doin it for wants it to look nice... maybe i'll look what the other guy did.

rad- how did u hook up the IAT sensor?
