You can do like some of us have done. Tear apart your intake box, and drill out the rivets holding the flange inside. Have that machined down, and put a 3" cone filter on the end. Get new bolts, and bolt it up to the MAF

Yeah true, for cold air, get one from Cattman or Warpspeed. I'm planing on making mine into a cold air from the spot I have now. But so far I haven't found a hood scoop I like

Actually, that hybrid kit would give you better performance. Notice on the original tube, that there's a drop box. That causes alot of unwanted turbulence. The tube gives a better smoother flow into the manifold.

I honestly can't tell you. I'm still using the original tube.

And as long as the filter has a 3" opening you should still be able to use it.

could you move the battery over to the old air box spot and find a more straight tube. or would the bat even fit there?
