welded intake question
 

Hey im Paul. im new and recently picked up my 88 gt. trying to get it all straightened out and on the road. i am not new to cars, fords, or even mustangs but have never seen this before so i figured i would ask.
anyone have any ideas why my intake would have been cut and welded back together? http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w...g?t=1295311361

the only thought i have is that they cut it open to port it, but i havent pulled it off to find out yet. has anyone else heard of this?

thanks in advance.

in order to port the stock upper intake u have to cut it open

God, that's stupid... the performance gains would be marginal at best for all the work it would take to do something like that. I would pull that garbage off my car so quick it wouldn't be funny. I weep for the human race when I see crap like this.

that almost makes me want to put my stock intake in a box and ship it to u overnight

lol i know its pointless, but is it really that bad? im getting this car back on the road and making it a nice street car. when i get all the important things figured out i am gonna work on more performance.

what would you guys recommend for an upgraded intake
