Wow... It's been a hell of a long time since I posted here lol. A couple years maybe. Well I still have the same Avenger 5 speed and im in the process of restoring it.
OK to the point...
I'm totally surprised at how cheap some of the parts for our cars go for on eBay. I was thinking about just picking up a really cheap cold air intake on eBay just for something to play around with. You can get them extremely cheap and I figure you can't really go wrong with something that cheap. What do you guys think? Is it worth blowing $20-25 on?

Thanks. I'll prob order one in the next couple of days!
Do they mount good or will I have to rig up some way to keep it from fallin off or anything, and will I still be able to drive in the rain or will I have to be more careful?

Maybe I'll just go with the regular instead of the CAI because I'd rather be safe than sorry. Would a heat shield with a regular intake be any good and would it still have that sucking noise?

Sounds like somebody knows from experience that puddles are bad
I had a Sentra with some engine work done to it, and a CAI. I was 18 (I think) and I drove through a bad puddle. It was making some wierd noises. I got it home, but it didn't want to start then next day. I drained all the oil (AND WATER!!!) and refilled it with some synthetic QuakerState. Started up and ran fine! Then I sold it.

Mod List. Um WAY too many to fit on here. But the engine can handle about 800HP
go with a shorty intake and water should not be much of an issue. I have problems with the carwash and puddles, long intake here. I now just drive it when the weathers nice, it's getting spoiled.
Well, I got my intake today from ProCarParts.com. It was a regular intake, not a CAI, with a heat shield air filter for a non-turbo eclipse. It took a while to make it fit for some reason. It's almost like they forgot that there was a battery there lol.
The car runs healthier and is definitely louder. For the $30 for the intake (plus shipping) it wasnt that bad of a deal if you dont mind it not fitting the best.
