Ones with a hard pipe between the IM and the TB, yes, because the angle is a little different. From the TB to the fender well, it should be the same.

I'm sure with a little creativity, the standard one would work.

Edit: Thanks for f*cking with my old school mind, I thought you were asking about IM's there for a second. I was ready to :beatstick:

:D

that ebay one is missin afew couplers if thats all u get is pictured... and ebay or injen its all a metal peice of pipe.... and for next to no gains other than sound, (unless ur turbo, heavily modded, etc..) i would not waste the money on a high dollar name brand..... example, the AEM and ebay special are IDENTICAL...... albeit maybe diff in metal quality, but not enough to warrant the price..

:banghead: Cheap and clean don't belong in the same sentence in my book. Why not just wait till you can afford a quality intake?
