Default made an custom CAI

i took the tube that comes off the airbox on my ford econoline van to the fender well whacked it in half, put it to my intake tube stuck it threw a hole in the fender where the stock box on the stang went, stuck the filter on it. then duck taped the hole around the tube ill make up a plate out of a peice of metal before long.

before:

surpisingly there is an defent differance in the seat o your pants meater, with the filter in the engin bay i always had some power loss once the car got up to normal opperating tempature
