I am in the process of swapping my old intake for the '99 intake and the cable that hooks up to the IAT sensor is too short what could be done to fix this?
also I have never changed my fuel injectors and I was wondering if there was anything I can put on the o-rings to get them into the intake easier? I dont want to mess anything up

If your not doing anything to your exhaust, this swap is futile. I did it and when i accidentally destroyed my aftermarket header, I noticed the difference when i went back to stock header.

If you are working around the injectors why not just hit the junkyard and upgrade them? I got 8 injectors from a neon and stratus and swapped mine out. Cheap and easy.

Idk if anyone would know but after I did the whole injector/ intake swap, every time I start up the rpms jump to 2k and sit there for 2 sec... Its never done that before.
