Question Cold air Intake for OZ Automatic?

I just bought a 2002 Lancer OZ with a automatic tranny and was wondering if anyone knows where I could find an intake for it. Everywhere I look all they have is intakes for 5 speeds but no automatics.

i dont see why it would be any different for the automatics, it should work fine.

They may only be listed for 5-speeds and not auto's b/c presumably if your goal is performance, you would have purchased a 5-speed to start since thats the cheapest and most beneficial/fundamental performance mod in the first place.

But, of course, i am not speaking out of first hand experience b/c i don't own an OZ, so hopefully someone else can contribute a little more.

Umm...5-speed intakes won't fit the auto. The auto tranny is MUCH larger and the piping wasn't made to fit around it.

You can custom rig something with some flex vent like for a clothes dryer, but there is no commercially made CAI for any auto Lancers.

you CAN GET IT TO FIT, but you need to relocate either your battery or your coolant overflow tank.

I moved both so i could go intercooled turbo with cold air.
