I have the trick flow black powder coated intake elbow...couldn't be happier. My rubber elbow had problems as well with not covering the TB completely at times, and this eliminated it all...and it looks better too. Since you have a 93, you won't even have to drill a hole for the opti vent tube that's on the 95 and up models. Just make sure that you keep your old elbow because you are going to need that plastic piece that your IAT sensor hooks in to.

When I bought mine a couple months ago, summit was selling them for the cheapest.

thanks what part will i need to keep i thought the iat was molded into the elbow?

When you get your new elbow, you will notice where your IAT sensor goes, there is already a pre-drilled hole with a rubber ring fitting. What you do is you place that rubber fitting in the hole...the purpose of that is obviously to keep it more air tight. Then, remove that black plastic piece that your IAT sensor goes in to from your old rubber elbow. It's a bit snug, but easily can be worked out. Once it's out, just place it in the new elbow. Once again, you will have to work it in a tad, but an easy task. Then just clamp everything together, hook up your IAT, and your good to go.

I attached a picture of an IAT sensor courtesy of robs shoebox just so there is no confusion.
