thanks for the info man. do you think its safe for me to purchase parts for a 93-95 and still install them on my 96? im talking mainly about an air intake. i know the exhaust and headers and such can be used but im just worried about the intake

The injen kit should work as it comes with an adapter to mount to the 4 bolt MAF, you just wouldn't need it. 
Worst case scenario you might have to use a pvc or metal coupling to join the MAF to the filter.

thanks for the info turbo. it helps a lot. also, lexus4jess..what kind of intake did you use? is it a custom job? any power gains? sound? im interested in getting something similar to your setup since it incorporates the MAF pretty easily and it looks like its not too hard to do

do you guys think that this is something that i should look into? where is his main source of air coming from? maybe i could move the shield and have the front part of my stock intake lead into the filter? hmmm.... my main concern is the MAF. do i use the old one and just plug and play?

hey thanks again turbo. your such a great help with all these questions you've probably answered before. thanks again guys...
that intake might be a bit overpriced though. and it says it only comes with black filter and hose. what does that mean? am i gonna need my own piping?

Not sure what they mean, it will mount just like lex4jess's does. You may have to reuse or buy a silicone coupler(EBay) and use a short pvc or metal piece to go from the MAF to the filter Everything else should bolt right up.
