just got my 88....and i heard that if i wanna put an intake in i have to do some extra piping is that true?

no...just get a cone filter with the adapter....$30 on ebay

You would only need extra piping if you wanted to mount the filter up in front of the radiator for colder air. Check out the 2nd gens FAQs section. I did a quick writeup for NA performance...

You won't be installing any turbo's on an NA. Too hard and too expensive to be reliable. Just buy a turbo enigine or car if you are going that route.

This is no joke, very good advice. I went as far as buying most of the spendy **** (turbo, intercooler, new ecu etc) when I said fu$k this. Ill just finish the N/A car out and look for a turbo chassis which I was planning all along. Only now im further down the road by having alot of parts to slap on once i find one.
