Show me some pics of your home made air intakes. I know if and when I make mine, it will look trashy, but at least I'll save around $250-$300 for other parts.

 

here is mine. it could look better but it didn't cost a lot of money. most parts can be found at a local hardware store. the box i got off ebay for 30 bucks. it came with that filter as well.

 

Thanks.

 

How did you make that air box that is what I'm looking to do I would like to make the air box. What are the measurment for that box. I have a 2003 yukon 4.8 looking to make that box. thank for your help.

 

On my 2000 Yukon XL I kept it as simple as I could. I bent a piece of aluminum sheetmetal, cut a hole in it big enough to fit the MAF, and screwed it to the floor that used to hold the stock air box. The MAF had 3 holes in it ready for mounting it to the sheetmetal. I used a K&N from a 5.7 L Chevy. I never got around to the dyno but I could chirp the tires a little more after the install and it sounded a little throatier. But this was back in 2000. Today you can get a sheetmetal box with a filter and all the hose clamps and connectors from ebay for 25 bucks + s&h

 

i just bought the 30 dollar kit off ebay.

 

any pics of link to this kit?
I am going to start eperimenting with a home made kit once my upd falls apart completely.

I bought something like this and chunked the filter.

 

good idea getting rid of the filter, they are horrible. i ran the eBay kit on my truck for a few months and it let way too much stuff past. swap the filter for a quality one and it is a good bang for your buck intake.
