Car air intakes do the work?

I have a 99 ford escort zx2 and i seen the air intakes on ebay,i thought about buying one,do they work? Does it make a difference from the 20 dollar one to the 200 dollar ones.What are the benefits?

Answer:

Well the cold air intake only work best in bigger engines and if youll put it in a 4 cyl it will sound like a bee. Air intakes help by making the car sound better and help alittle by increasing the hourse power. As far as money wise. go for good brands like Flowmaster, Magnaflow, Specture. Not sure about the $20 maybe it was a used one. check out youtube and here how each brand sounds depanding how many cyl you have too.
I bought one a couple of months ago for my 94 Accord. My air filter hose was broken so I was getting really bad gas mileage. This helped get my gas mileage up to where it should be but I havent noticed much of a difference in horsepower. It looks good under the hood and sounds good when you take off fast.
