Re: Hey New 2 This But Need Help Asap

air intake pipe? where abouts is it? is it something that could be replaced by buying a induction kit?

or try find a second hand part on one of the part finding websites or ebay for a cabby being broken for spares

Re: Hey New 2 This But Need Help Asap

You could also try looking at 1.6 litre Tipos/ Tempras as they used the same engine. Not exactly plentiful in scrappies though!

Best bet is to post a picture of the pipe you are talking about. That way a member should be able to identify exactly what it is and what cars you could take one from.

Welcome to FF BTW!
