The 2 filterhomemade intakelooks funny. It's like a 2 headed snake! The DIY intake is not bad, but I'd prefer to buy an aftermarket one that has proven performance gains.

 

I'm playing with the idea, but it won't be a Rube Goldberg like over at the Colorado forum[8D]

 

i got bored and made one today. works great. ill post pics later. im on my cell internet now. lol

drove all weekend with my new mod, and come to find out that im getting more gas mileage, lower rpm at higher speeds, and much quieter engine. i dont know if something was wrong with my stock stuff or whatnot, but i do know i like this better...

for example.
before i had this mod i drove 215-220 miles before i had to fill up(all interstate 70mph on cruise)

now i drove 250miles and just hit a quarter tank(all interstate.. on cruise 70mph)

whats going on? i have no clue.. but i like it! im going t ocoat the tubing and put some hummer lettering on it !

 

Does someone have a parts list????
Possibly a quick how to document????
TNX.

 

How did the intake, lower your rpm's?[sm=dontgetit.gif]

 

Hey jeepeater, turned out nice. See how well those hump couplers work? Pretty cool eh? I found my similar mod to be very quiet. Only problem I have is on a cold start the breather box buzzes against the right inner fender well. I haven't had the free time to figure out how to stop that noise but I prefer the tube in place of the stock resonator box.

These intake mods are no different that a K&N or Trueflow system, performance should be about the same as there's very little difference. The chrome tubing looks sweet. Glad I could help.
