55 dollar intake

Got it from advanced auto parts, it was just a replacement filter from K&N, I just stuck it to the stock air intake hose and wa-la! Sounds great!

Are you talking about the panel filter? I had one but upgraded to the AFE CAI.

He said he "stuck it to the stock air intake hose". I don't think he's talking about the standard square drop-in filter.

He probably just stuck a standard cone filter on the end of the hose without any kind of heat sheild. Should work great in the cold weather months.

The "hot air intake":

Granted, this thread is for an MCS, but I think it is the original:

No no no some cold air still gets in from the original airbox, those tubes are pointed right at the intake
