alright i just got my first car, a 1990 dodge daytona ES with the 3.0 V6. shes finally running good and i was looking to add a little horse power and have seen some stuff online about replacing the air box with the k & n cone filter from a 5 liter mustang and was wondering if anyone knows if this really helps and if it does how would i go about doing the swap. if anyone can help that would be great.
                          thanks

well im not to sure about that mustang filter thing but i have the same car and before i made a custom air intake pipe i just put the cone filter at the end of the stock (rubber) pipe and just took the air box out .. some people call it ram air because it isnt gettin mych cold air but it works untell u get a diff pipe

well for that i just have it plugged .. ya  it makes your check engin light come on but thats not a big deal... for my stom pipe i got made it takes the place of even the air scoop right beside your batt and goes down to the hole (vent) in front bumper ...and in my eyes a daytona is to good to have something from a mustang in it ... but try that and see how you like it ..... good luck
