from what it seems you are jumping the gun without actually having any idea what the swap may entail. I suggest you read the threads that detail this swap. to answer your questions
every clip or engine you buy should come with the intake air filter and the exhaust manifold and b- pipe. otherwise dont buy the engine, or youll be screwed. a missing part will give you headaches, and will be hard to find. -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years...

If you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in 2grfe Swapped... Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here...

The BEAMS swap is as easy as a swap gets and there's plenty of information on the forums about it, but if you're asking a question as simple as intake compatibility then you'll have serious issues with the swap. I'm not trying to be a jerk, but seriously, the intake is pretty common information on the BEAMS. To answer your question- no, your AEM intake will be scrap when the 5S comes out. 2.5" piping for the B pipe. An exhaust shop can fab up a B pipe for you, but getting the factory B pipe would have been easier and the BEAMS will not even start with a proper intake, and the factory intake is by far the best intake for it. Again, not trying to be a jerk. I know it sounds like I am, but without knowing which intake will work, a BEAMS swap will not come together. You'll definitely want to give these threads a few good reads. njccmd2002- "I Swapped 3s-ge Redtop Into '97 Limited Edition Vert." turnip- "Swap: 3sge Beams into 94 GT" hurley97/Batman722- "New Addition to Our Family" erahman85- "One acronym...
