Homemade CAI, Again

After some failed attempts to put these pictures up I think I have it. Thanks RedWolf. So, here it is again.

I'd like to say thanks to all of those out there who have given me ideas for making this. It took about $55 in parts (including the filter) and about 2 hours of labor to finish. I'm going to leave it black and "stock" looking.

Looks like it will work just fine. What size filter did you get?

Looks good and definetely better than some other home made CAIs I've seen. Just curious did the sticker add any HP?

The hp gain from the K&N sticker is unmeasureable but I can feel it! lol The filter is Item #599-RU-3130 from Jegs.com. It was cheaper than the O.E. replacement filter from K&N.I never have had the car on a dyno but I think I could feel better throttle response with it. I figure it's gotta be doing something good. For the price I couldn't pass it up.
