RE: K&N filter into the air box
Anyone used this?

instead of beating a dead horse maybe i should just get one of these. biggest thing for me is i don't want problems from this car.
I have the Eclipse for my daily break downs and problems.
I wouldn't mind a bit better milleage and a bit more power without hurting the life span.
maybe that cone filter kit would work. does it mess up any of the sensors?

Truth be told, you're probably best off with a K&N cone, just make sure you don't over-oil (remember, blow off the excess with compressed air).
Look at the TTDA and VTDA intake systems from the modshack.info

You can do this in the meantime:

If you get rid of the 90-degree bends in the stock airbox tubing, you can probably also safely remove the veins in your MAF (that is, you must smooth out the airflow before removing them).

Well, the long-term benefit or harm of a K&N air filter is pretty much up for debate. There is danger to your MAF.
Now, a K&N filter DOES flow particles larger than your stock air filter, however MOST problems with the K&N arise from owners over-oiling the filter.
To be on the safe side, a good idea is to oil the filter up, but then blow off the remaining oil with compressed air. That way, it will not build up on the MAF.
Why not just go for a VDTA? Just wondering.
