Relocate the battery to the rear, and do a custom intake that goes straight thru base of where the battery use to be... loud, but u get more cold air that way... it dun collect as much heat as it normally does goin over the raidiator...
WARNING!!! this custom piping is FRIGGIN LOUD!!!!... but u get major cold air!

well, if u floor it, any intake will get u pulled over (personal experience there...
) but from wut I heard, its almost as short as a short-ram intake and everyone should know how loud a short-ram intake sounds when u rev... but on the website my friend showed me, they said it was loud and it did have a warning saying that it was LOUD....
come to think of it... I wanna try it before I do a swap...

I have an aem short ram in mine.... and I love it! I don't know for sure which short ram intake makes the most power... but I know that aem's cold air makes the most power. Anyway I have never gone with any other company when it comes to intakes... because aem = quality, good sound, good power, and good looks! Can't go wrong with aem.-
ps- it may be a little bit more money... but like mom always says, you get what you pay for!

Otherwise, any custom muffler shop should be able to bend the piping for ya.... it shouldnt be more than 40 or 50 bux to get the full custom mandrel bent intake... should be an easy job for em to do... all u need to do afterwards is paint it in and out with thermal paint and get the rubber sleeves and K&N filter....
sleeves should be about 3 or 4 bux each at Home Depot (get the black ones, thick and it takes the heat)
K&N, ya'll should know where to go for em
but piping... if u guys want, I can go get it dun for a KA24DE dohc
dunno if I have anyone round here with SOHC KA24E
