I noticed a lot of you are putting cool air intakes on your bonnies. I was wondering where can i get one for my 95, how much, and does it go on the car or do you have to fab it to make it fit.

Most people for our body styles have made custom ones. I'm sure you could buy an aftermarket one and rig it up somehow.

What would be a good web site to look for one?

The big sites are:

www.intense-racing.com
www.3800performance.com
www.zzperformance.com
www.pfyc.com
www.thrashercharged.com

I don't know how well you can fit those CAI'* inside.

EDIT: These are fabricated for GP'*, but may work.

A GP intake is really too short for our cars, and their CAI setups won't fit ours. Your best bet is to fabricate from scratch or adapt, like many of us do. There are about 100 intake topics in this Performance forum. Many good ones just on the first two pages.

BonneMeMn has fit a cheap civic intake into his car successfully.

Mine is one of a very few that were actually built specifically for the Bonneville. I built the heat shield myself, but chose the filter carefully. The filter actually supports the CAI and also holds the IAT. The heat shield alone cost me less than 10 bucks.
