RE: Air Intake Questions - Help Please
NOW i understand talk about thick headed..Thanks and i see what you mean..On my cruiser the airaid kit snaped onto the the bottom of the oem airbox. I wonder if K&N will fit one just for the Forte 2.4. But then would the ECU get enough cool air..

It would probably be better because much of the heat would be blocked from reaching it. I know of several people that have installed them on other vehicles with ECUs right next door and have had no issues.

I spoke too soon. Un-believably, K&N doesn't make a CAI kit for the Forte, yet. I went to their site and put in the car and only the drop-in and the oil filter are available. I can't believe 3 years into a model and they still don't have a CAI kit!

OK, well i guess build it, it is. Isn't there quite a few companies that have universal intake kits that should come with all the pipes, adapters and clamps that i will need ?

There are a few complete kits out there. Several internet sites sell them. Just do a search for "Air Intake Systems".
