20 bucks for a better solution for my intake boot i'm in i think i am style 3

Why? Not trying to be a douche, I just don't see why these are necessary. My OEM boot is fine and I paid like $5-10 for it new off ebay. *shrug*

I'm on my second boot and i have only had the car for a few years. They dry and crack easily and cause all sorts of vacum leaks that most people don't notice until they actually remove the boot. Plus i you go turbo a new boot last a couple months max if your over 8 psi. Plus having a smooth surface should reduce turbulance.

Well, whatever I have to fanagle around to make one of these work, I will! I've been wanting one of these for a long time, the OEM boots suck.

Put me down for a style 3.

updated first post. I'm considering deleteing the extra vacum line for the booster and running one for the 87 eta or changing my ICV and running the 89+. What ever gets to 20 quickest.

Sounds good, keep us posted. That would be easy to make work with my car.

You can put me down for a style 5

[kamotors]

I'd be interested in style 3.

If you can do them in 3" to fit the M30 AFM definitely count me in for two in the first style.

[einstein57]

After the snow melts, sure. Any general rule on which years/models got which style?

89 and newer should be the same. ii'll check real oem tomorrow.

I would definitely be in for one of these, but my intake is kind of hodge-podge right now. I'm using an i throttle body and manifold, but my booster setup looks different than either of those. Could I change things around to make it work? Looks like I could run that second one, I just might need to switch to a T-shaped ICV, would that work on an eta? I think my ICV might be going, anyway.

i'll try my icv and boot on an eta to see if it hass the same step values. i have the early i which has the same boot as yours

we can get them made in every boot ever made as long as there are 20 buyers per model. iwas considering having them made with a flared end for m30 and turbo guys. who ever does not need the flair could easily cut it off. just a thought. i believe the colors are red, black, blue, yellow, orange, green, and purple. i have to ship them a new boot per model and i'm not going to flip the bill for a half dozen boots. if anyone has an un warped or non cracked boots to donate let me know so i can ship them all out at once otherwise they are getting the one for my car.
