Looks similar to the one Mid-America sells. Generic Y pipe style with two large cones.

It's not a cold air intake unless there have been some mods done to the car that allows cold air in that part of the underwood area. Otherwise it still draws warm air in from under the hood just like the stock air filter does.

But I agree, looks like a Mid-America or similar dual cone intake.

I purchased the same for my 2001 and as you can see there is no nipple. So you will have to mod it.

I asked to return it and the seller just said keep it and here's a refund. Lol what does that say
