Maybe alot of the cai's fit pretty well, but the one I got didn't fit worth crap. I know the wai's are a diff story, there are others who share my point of view.

I ended up buying the bomz SOHC intake, yes the silicone boot didnt fit i went out another one did some mods to it all's u need is a 2" -2" silicone boot if u angle it right u can get it without rubbin on the radiator hose, may take a lil bit but if ya got the paients. i did notice a lil bit of performance out of it though. so if u have a small budget or have a SOHC its worth it, seein its a pain in findin parts for the SOHC thats y next yr i plan on doin a swap

Default Reviving and old post....

Looks like this post is fairly old, but considering the lack of new posts, I figured I'd add to this.

I have the CP Cold Air Intake and it works great. Immediately noticed quicker response and better top end pull. Only problem is, when I ordered this, I made sure to find one that was CARB legal so I wouldn't have to remove it when I had to smog my car (I'm in California). Well, today I went to get it smogged only to be told that my intake is not legal. The highly intelligent and well trained smog technition also told me that my SC2 is a single cam and that was 'part of the reason it wasn't legal'. WTF? I guess working at Saturn taught me nothing huh? Riiiiiight. Dual cam all the way with the valve cover, 'TWIN CAM 16V', and rear reflector to back it up.

I called the Air Resources Board and was told that they have no record of the CP Cold Air Intake EO #D-533 CP-630 (think that's the right numbers) and that it is NOT CARB legal. Hmm. I called CP to find out what was going on and was told that it's pending CARB approval and *should* be approved next year. Yeah. So, point is, it works great, is a good deal for the money, but plan on swapping your stock intake back in when it's time to smog.

Just got a video of what the "dr. speeedy" CAI sounds like with a K&N filter. Keep in mind that the outside diameter of the piping is 2"... Tiny piping... When the revs hit 6,000 RPM's it makes a horrible, ricetastic buzzing noise, then quiets, then buzzes really loud again at 6,300, and keeps buzzing until redline.

2" piping? That sounds more restrictive than the stock intake.

I thought the Dr. Speedy was 2.25" for 00-02 and 2.5" for 91-99? Maybe I'm wrong, I'm guessing at numbers I heard a long time ago.

3" custom CAI ftw!
