Well, you could use the intake, but then you will need to somehow filter the air entering that air pump line once you disconnect it.
At present, K&N is the only aftermarket intake manufacturer I know of that provides for SAI.

However, sir injection is not absolutely necessary, and can be disabled and removed. I would have to look at some procedures and things to determine how you can do it.

Compared to stock, this baby roars!
I wanted to get a video taken today. But by the time I got home after work & school, it was pitch black outside. I'll probably work on getting it recorded tomorrow.
Then I'll work on getting it posted later in the week.
School & work never makes life easy.
And if that wasn't enough, I've got something called a GIRLFRIEND.

the only advice i could give you is research what you buy before you buy it next time a lot of parts for these cars come in 20 different sizes models ect so its important to do a lot of research before you end up buying the right thing no offense or anyhting good luck with that damn intake

Right. but I would imagine it would be hard to get a CEL from an intake. It was because of NYS inspections that I drove a 1995 Beretta Z26 forever. (OBD I) Excempt from emissions and code checks.
