RE: dumb question here probably
ORIGINAL: jimmasterK
I saw a 2001 (?) with the intake dropped in right about where the battery would go normally, I suppose, but the battery was sitting right next to it. Didn't ask him too much about how he did it. A question I have about an intake is, notice how in each of these pictures, the intake wraps around to the back of the engine to where the filter is located....would it be possible to cut the intake pipe off just after it curves towards the back and rig up a cone filter sitting just to the right of the spark plugs or would that cause the elimination of a much-needed O2 sensor?

Looks like that intake you posted a link to is for 2000 and newer Neons. I looked at an Iceman intake for a 1st gen. and the picture looked like it wrapped around to the back of the engine (where the air filter is to begin with). I've just been trying to come up with a cheap do-it-yourself way of getting a better intake going if it's possible.
