detjoe Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 More pics in How-to section thanks fuelslut for the idea to put a decal in there for people to get down and look at I used tiewraps to hold it in place, I cut a hole in the airbox support with a 4" hole saw, I offset the hole toward the back of the truck so in the middle of the plastic airbox. The I used a 3" hole saw to cut the hole into the airbox, then I used some insulation/foam to seal the two holes to each other. I only used a small piece of 3" PVC, you cannot even tell if you are looking at the engine compartment. sorry the pic is of low quality.

Jonmalibuss Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 only downfall i see is water <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You'd have to be plowing a very large amount of water for it to make it up that far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you do that with the original air box? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
detjoe Posted May 12, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 this is the first style volant ram air tube connect to the stock box. the fisrt style tube uses two pices, and I think the new one is one piece, not really sure. I am going to take some more pics since this was easy and I think you could see gains even w/o the tube. When i post more pics you will see the way I kind of took a short cut with sealing the tube so that any excess water will not get into the stock airbox.
