So this is the first time since I have had my Truck that I have been able to get out and really take a look at things. I had checked the air filter before but never noticed the box. I took the box off and cleaned it and this is what I see.

and this

I can only think he was trying to get some extra air into the system with this HACK JOB I mean "mod". Anyone else see any other purpose for this?

That's what it looks like.:4-dontknow:...Good enough reason to get a CAI???..Rob

 

[Evil Ram]

Hey we are in Recession after all lol!!

 

[CdnoilRAM]

They were trying to save money so they could pay the HST on the truck, but they wanted to add some 'performace'... Looks like something someone from Duncan would do.

 

[ShawnC13]

You know about Duncan??? Truck is actually from Penticton but ya an HST avoidance there for sure. Oh well another year and we won't have it.

 

[CdnoilRAM]

Yeah, I know about Duncan. When we moved back to Canada we moved onto Maple Bay Road.... just outside of Duncan, but went to Mill Bay to finish high school. I kind of miss it, you know, the running over of drunk indians on the reserve, the knifings outside of the strip joint, the 7 stop lights along the highway as you go through town.... yup, miss every moment I'm not there.

[ShawnC13]

The idea is a great idea. It's the execution that was a major fail...LOL!

 

[dodge man]

On my truck, the previous owner just drilled a bunch of holes in the bottom of the housing. I wish it was still stock.

 

[fishhawk]

That is some realy bad thinking on that air intake-lol. But yup he was trying any way--i guess. Wonder how much crap got inside, realy though you now have the perfect reason to get a nice air intake-just fyi-spectre has a realy nice and affordable deal going on right now might want to check it out. LOVE mine.

 

[mikeski]

It's not a big deal. As long as you do it on the correct side of the air filter.

me....

 

[huntergreen]

if you do a search, i think some guys are still drilling holes into the airbox.

 

[wvcoolvinilla]

as someone said ..can't fix stupid

I'm surprised. I'd have guessed Vernon/Coldstream if coming from the valley.

 

[chefred112]

yup..for more airflow..you don't realize how much it can take until you open it up more..I did the same in mine before i got a real cai and it did perform better..

 

[chefred112]

WOW its scary that someone thought that was a good idea. you cant fix stupid.

whats stupid about it..it's still before the air filter....you wanna stay stock stay stock....
