Airbox was changed after 1999 9-3...

So the 3" airbox inlet used on the 1994-1998 NG900 and 1999 9-3 may not work on the later model cars.
Based on the decriptions I have been given, the newer airbox on the 2000-2002 9-3 may be just fine as is.
Obvoiusly, adding a lower restriction air filter like a K&N can still be done with the 2000-2002 9-3 airbox.
