seriously though I think I want to delete the airbox.
Is it worth using a cheap Conical Autozone (ricer) filter in the end of the tube?

TurboLX · November 13th, 2007, 03:57 PM

yea get a conical style cold air intake or the 5L one from BBK so you can keep the MAF simple

and it does increase performance
