they're different generations... the new ones are just as nice a car as anything else in its price range...

i dunno why people think hondas and acuras are such great interior cars. my ls integra has shitty interior, and i havent seen a honda with nice interior spare one with leather seats.

03-05 are the same damn thing as 95-02. diff headlights, hoods, fenders and bumpers, thats all. ecotec engine also came in 00+ j-bodys... sooo really if you think the 03s are alright, then the whole 3rd generation platform is alright to you... unless of course your going strickly off looks since the 03+ ones come with stock body kits most of the time.

i guess to answer your question, haha lol how are you going to build boost without the charge pipe connected to the engine hahahaha, that's such a funny question. just leave it and rev the engine, the air flowing out the pipes will be enough to clean all the crap in there.

Just fyi, The whole thing is moot anyway. You don't need boost, you just need airflow. Pressure doesn't push anything thru the pipes, flow does. You'll make plenty of flow even if you don't apply the brakes, just no pressure becuase the engine will be moving too quickly for it to build up in the IM at the low throttle angle you'd be using to do it.
