WTB: Intake snorkel, air box for N/A 1.6
« on: January 26, 2008, 08:44:15 am »
I'm looking for the air filter housing/intake tube that clips to the intake manifold of a n/a 1.5 or 1.6.  I'd like it to be unmodified. I modified mine and the droning noise is really annoying.....
what's your price shipped to 14810?

Thanks,
Steve

yeah I know what your talking about. Its so loud. almost earplug required. I was pulled over in Maine by a trooper and he asked why it was so loud. He thought it was super modded exhaust.  All I could tell him was that it was an old diesel and thats how it is.  ha ha

good luck with your search.

Yeah, a guy at work though I was going to throw a rod after I started my car because the engine is pretty loud when it is cold out.

over-rated-put a ram air hose to the front of the car and suck in some of that nice cold stuff!
