How hard is it to make your own CAI?

Ive done a little research, but havent grasped the concept completely, how hard (expensive) would it be to make my own CAI with a quality air filter?
Thanks in advance!

 

never seen one.
on here.
or anywhere.

 

like if i just built my own box? i feel like ive seen one on TTORA before but i cant remember

 

post pics when you are done.

no seriously go for it.

 

yeah i know theres a stock one, but if i like cut the pipe and re routed it in front of the grille, idk ill work on it

 

I say grab some dryer tubing and mod away

 

^good idea

 

drill a hole straight through the fender to the filter.

 

Cut a GIANT hole in your hood then route the filter so it is vertical coming out of your hood

 

Although you can do this mod, you most likely will fail smog next time you go through inspection.

 

he from louisiana

 

I've actually seen that done before. I snapped a cell phone pic in a parking lot ages ago and no longer have a copy.

OP, a lot of people have experimented by replacing the stock intake tubes with aluminum or plastic ones with less bends and such, the gains you get out of the money spent are just not worth the effort. Sorry man.

 

thats disappointing to hear, but imma try it anyway hehe

 

So much HP to be had

edit: don't forget the lint trap

 

watch yourself

 

Also seeing how mods are only cool because they come with stickers (also performance enhancing). You should get like a maytag or kenmore sticker so those fools on the street know what they're up against.

 

huh?

 

dont be talkin bad about louisiana

 

go re-read what i quoted. i clearly was NOT talking bad about louisana and just pointed out the smog thing may not be for that state. geez

 

wow man my bad haha i skimmed over it and took it out of context! sorry haha
