Air intake changes? Help please!!!!
Okay, I want to get an aftermarket intake for my 2003 Pt Cruiser. I am debating between the Injen Short Ram Air (IS series) or the K&N FIPK. What is really confusing me though is they say the injen works for the 2000-2001 pt's. Is there ANY difference in the intake or anything with a 2003? I don't have the turbo. Someone please give me some insight on this. Also, which intake would yall go with?

First of all, there is no such thing as a 2000 PT Cruiser.
Even though production began in March 2000, they are all 2001 model year cars. For 2002, the make-up air hose was moved from the flexible rubber intake hose to the lower airbox body. This may be the difference they are trying to compensate for.

Welcome, Bloxstudios.
MX-5 knows his stuff, but he's saying no difference 2002 to 2003 for non-turbo. To your question - I'd go K&N. They replace more of the intake tract (you have to move the air sensor to the new intake - be gentle with it). Not familiar with the Injen. I have the AirAid - it was cheaper, and leaves the ribbed rubber hose to the throttle body that the K&N replaces. Is there a huge diffference? Probably not, so if money or looks are a deciding factor, got with it.
