I'm probably going to do the intake scoops on mine over the winter break. I dont have the money to finish the dune buggy's EFI conversion so i gotta find something cheap/inexpensive to take up my time lol.

When I first drove the truck it only had the lid and intake piping. I did not touch anything on the bottom part of the stock airbox. The truck ran about the same or a little slower than the MAC CAI. Next I cut out the back side of the air box as you can see in one of the pics and connected the ram air setup. This time when I drove it, it was better than the MAC intake. Then after driving it about ~30 miles I definately ran better. Cruising about 65 and dropping it down into 2nd you can really notice a SOTP difference. The off idle response has also been improved. I only have a 4.8 so any little bit helps. I hope that helps.
