1) Remove the stock airbox.
2) Cut a piece of 4inch diamter PVC pipe about 3 inches long.
3) I used an old case lid from a 15 year old computer. Remember the old 1/2 height tower cases? It was the right width for the filter and I didn't have to fab up anything. Perfect!
4) Create a template for the shape you want the box.
5) Trace out the template and cut the box. I used the air body saw I got for my birthday. Finally a use for it!
6) Cut out the front with 4 inch circle to run the PVC pipe into the box. The old screw holes on the case made perfect tack weld holes!
7) This is what it looks like when you mate the pieces together. The sheet metal rests on your PVC pipe, not the rubber or the filter.
8. Make 3 brackets so that the new air box clear the AC lines. I didn't want it bouncing up and down on the line. That's the high side incase you are wondering. I taped the holes so that the bolts thread into the bracket. There isn't enough clearance to get a bolt or nut under the box. The brackets just bolt into the existing stock box studs.
9) Paint the box orange and enjoy!
