Moded my air intake.

Got bored and didnt like the chromed intake look from those autozone spectre ones so I made this with help from posts on this site. Just need to buy the drop in performance air filter.

I have pretty much the same setup, I just need to sand it down and paint it. But it too cold, stupid New Mexico.

Inorite? It was in the 60's even up here in Los Alamos on Thursday, and it's been snowing all day. :025:

Thanks, I was hoping to get a stencil and paint RAM on there in an accent color but got impatient and just threw on the truck. I like that is quieter than my old set up without the airbox and the filter exposed.

Where did you get your parts and how much did you spend, I like the looks of your setup. Can we get a step by step, this looks really simple, good work.

Where did you hide you IAT sensor??? And did you use 3'' pipe for that?

PCA4208 · Mar 11, 2013

Just painted mine. Also made a nice PVC white MOPAR emblem in the middle.
Parts I used- 3" ID PCV, 3" ID PVC Street bend, Two 3" ID rubber couplings.

He didn"t have to, he has a 4.7 so the IAT it in the throttle body, I think the big hose on top is the breather.

My 07 4.7 had the iat in the air box originally.

Nice

bronx79 · Mar 11, 2013

Oh okay... Duh. I just noticed it was a 4.7.

I picked up my parts at the local home depot. With clamps is costs me about $20.00 for the system. Then I bought a few rubber grommet at autzone and a small 90 degree breather valve. Took about 20 minutes to measure cut and assemble and the 30 minutes to paint.

what are the benefits to doing this? well other than being alot cheaper than a CAI.. i am looking for some good bang for the buck mods with a limited budget. Thanks

From what I read the PVC upgrade with the stock air box and a good drop in filter is in some cases better than the expensive "cold air intakes" out there. I have the K&N CAI and I'm prob gonna go back to the PVC into stock air box one for a couple reasons, K&N is too loud and I feel it sucks in MORE hot air than cool air like the stock box. But who knows, this topic gets beat up a lot and there are few true cold air intakes out there. Another side note, I think the loud air sound coming from under the hood makes people think there is more power ? Without a dyno is prob hard to tell.

Moded my air intake.
