I need to know if the stock lower intake for a SN95 is the same as the fox. I know the upper is different but what about the lower? The reason I ask is I'm thinking about picking up a used lower for dirt cheap and getting it ported. Only thing is, it' off a fox. Will it work?

are you guys absolutely sure it will work? this warning is on Tmoss' website:

CAUTION: Be sure to buy an intake that matches your year car – the 94-95 intakes do not have the EGR coolant line and the ACT holes drilled and tapped into them like the 87-93 intakes.

is that referring to the upper or lower?

Our cars do not need the EGR and ACT holes that the Fox cars do. The fox manifold will work. The lower is the same from 87-95. The only difference is the upper. PM Tmoss just to make sure, I'm 99% sure though.

Joe is right - the ACT and EGR coolant holes are not drilled and tapped in the 94-95 intakes. You guys can use the 87-93 lowers, you just have to plug those two holes. The lowers for 86-95 are essentially the same.
