Check out this cold air intake made from factory intake that costs were minimal and quote from Gale Banks about intakes. (I am not pushing Banks products)


Quote from Gale Banks...

Of course, a vehicle?s airbox is where the outside air comes into the engine. Due to cost
restraints, factory airboxes usually allow for a well-engineered aftermarket airbox to do
a much more efficient job at directing the air into the engine. The best-engineered
airboxes are sealed units that take the air in from the front of the vehicle and create
the least-restrictive path to the turbocharger.

Aftermarket filters-on-a-stick don?t work very well, even if the air filter element has
an enclosure around it. They still tend to take in the hot underhood air, which is far
less dense than outside ambient air. Remember, just because an aftermarket airbox system
or filter-on-a-stick makes more noise, doesn?t mean its making power or increasing air
density. Make sure you get a dynamometer-tested airbox that actually makes power and
increases air density instead of just making more noise.

I started today to modify my factory clean air intake box to provide cooler air and also to provide additional air.

Now that I have it back together I can fabricate a flexable hose to mount to the bottom of the box that will protrude 20"s straight down toward the bottom of the truck where it will pickup cooler outside air. Air off the hot pavement will be cooler than engine compartment air. Once I get this hose fabricated I will update the post to show contents.
