Oh yeah that's right. The OZ has a different bolt pattern to the ES. Let me know how it goes. Again, please hit up 89mirageman for any more info or help on getting parts.

It's the original 3" hose from the oem box. The original owner did that but with a cheesy filter, I put in the k&n thermal wrapped the hose and custom fabed a stainless steel heat shield for the intake. Sorry more info than you probably wanted.

Actually that's pretty good info. Thinking about trying to fab sometging like that to go behind the battery and getting a heat sheild like u. That way it has less hot air going at it. That or relocating the battery to the trunk and then making the filter sit in that area with a heat shield also

Totally recommend it. With the stainless the temp difference is dramatic just from what I can feel when my hand is outside vs inside the shield.

My buddy used aluminum. Think it would matter that much?

Stainless is more heat resistant metal for metal but j guess you could use a heat resistant coating on the aluminum. Idk stainless is my weapon of choice 4 out of 5 times for this application (heat resistance)

It's a better trade for me.
The mazda 3 hatchback has
• 143 hp already faster than the lancer
• rebuild engine which means I can put on a turbo or nos
•brand new clutch
• it's an 04
• and (better for snow)
.its all black <3
