can anyone provide me with info and/or links as to what is a cold air box? my friend was telling me about them yesterday vs short/long ram intakes.

 

You put a short ram intake tube into the factory intake box (non-d16y7).
Cut the downtube, from a U bend, into a J, to pick up air from the fender-well.
Done.

 

i think i might that

There was another one here on H-T where someone made their own box out of metal, but the pictures no longer work.

 

sooo... he didn't put the cone filter in?

 

there's an integ version where the guy cuts his stock box to fit the entire SRI

Pretty dumb to put pvc near a hot engine...seeing as the gases it can release are toxic and all....

All this need for fabing things is just silly. The stock tubing is more than adequate for the job, when cut.
A cone filter is unnecessary as well - a K&N filter for the stock box is just as effective, and will flow better than an ebay/parts store cone will anyday.
