Homemade CAI

I went to AutoZone and bought a 90* angle and attached a cone filter.
Total was $10 for the bend. I already had the filter.

I did it so the turbo could breathe easier. It sounds cool, but I doubt if I got any HP gains from it. I left the bottom of the stock housing in place as to utilize the cold air duct. Since it's winter I'm not worried about heat in Reno.

Next up- intercooler muffler delete. Homemade.

Later,
Aaron

I'll get pics in a minute.
